Lamb Chops with Balsamic Reduction image

This recipe for lamb chops is a favorite in my house. It is an easy and quick recipe for two people (we eat two chops each). Rosemary and thyme give it great flavor. If you double the recipe, remember that the sauce will take longer to reduce.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ teaspoon dried rosemary
¼ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried thyme
salt and pepper to taste
4 lamb chops (3/4 inch thick)
1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ cup minced shallots
⅓ cup aged balsamic vinegar
¾ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • In a small bowl or cup, mix together the rosemary, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Rub this mixture onto the lamb chops on both sides. Place them on a plate, cover and set aside for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place lamb chops in the skillet, and cook for about 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium rare, or continue to cook to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet, and keep warm on a serving platter.
  • Add shallots to the skillet, and cook for a few minutes, just until browned. Stir in vinegar, scraping any bits of lamb from the bottom of the skillet, then stir in the chicken broth. Continue to cook and stir over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has reduced by half. If you don't, the sauce will be runny and not good. Remove from heat, and stir in the butter. Pour over the lamb chops, and serve.

In this rack of lamb recipe, we're actually roasting the meat over the sauce. And not just any sauce: we spiked this beurre rouge (red wine butter sauce) with fresh blueberries, and the small, dark fruit performed beautifully.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Lamb

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 (8 bone) racks of lamb, fully trimmed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground cumin
⅓ cup sliced shallot
1 pinch salt
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup dry red wine
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon butter, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Season lamb generously with salt and black pepper. Heat oil over medium-high heat in an oven-proof skillet. Sear lamb on all sides until well browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Turn off heat. Remove lamb to a platter.
  • Mix together Dijon mustard, rosemary, cinnamon, and cumin in a small bowl. Spread a thin layer of the mustard mixture on each rack of lamb.
  • Place chopped shallots and pinch of salt into the same skillet. Cook and stir over medium-heat until shallots begin to lose moisture and become browned and soft, about 5 minutes. Add blueberries and continue cooking for about 2 minutes. Stir in red wine, turn off heat, and stir mixture to deglaze the pan.
  • Place the racks of lamb into the skillet and interlace the rib bones together to push the lamb racks close together, leaving a lamb bone "zipper" in the center. Place the lamb racks into the center of the skillet. Season with a pinch of black pepper.
  • Place skillet in pre-heated oven and roast lamb until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for medium-rare, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove lamb to a cutting board to rest about 5 minutes.
  • Drizzle balsamic vinegar into the blueberry sauce; add a pinch of salt. Turn heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer to reduce sauce by half, about 4 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in butter. When butter is melted, check seasonings and add more salt if needed.
  • Slice racks into pieces of 2 ribs each. Serve topped with a spoonful of the blueberry sauce.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 to 8 loin lamb chops
4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or cast-iron grill pan over high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the fire so that one side of the grill has more coals than the other - a "hot" side. If using a grill pan, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Rub the lamb chops with the garlic and season aggressively with salt and pepper. If grilling, place on the hot side for 2 minutes per side. Move the chops to the cooler side of the grill to cook through, an additional 6 to 7 minutes. If using a grill pan, grill one side for 2 minutes to sear, then turn over the chops and place the pan in the oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the grill or oven and allow to sit 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are evenly marbled with fat and have a pinkish-red color. Avoid chops that are too lean or have a lot of gristle.
  • Marinate the lamb chops: Marinating the chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize them and add flavor. You can marinate the chops for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Cook the lamb chops over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chops while keeping the inside juicy. You can grill, pan-fry, or broil the chops.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the lamb chops: The chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Let the lamb chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Grilled lamb chops with blueberry lemon reduction is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The lamb chops are tender and juicy, while the blueberry lemon reduction is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is easy enough to make for a weeknight meal.
