Lamb Chops and Potatoes With Olives, Tomatoes and Feta Cheese image

A wonderful dish--simple, delicious comfort food. I seared the lamb chops in a hot skillet coated with a little olive oil before adding them to the potatoes in the oven (reducing roasting time accordingly) and scattered chopped flat-leaf parsley along with the olives, tomatoes and feta to add some color. Recipe adapted from Bon Appétit.

TASTY BAKED LAMB WITH FETA CHEESE AND TOMATOES



Tasty Baked Lamb With Feta Cheese and Tomatoes image

This is my husband's special dish he makes us for a treat. The flavours are lovely and he impressed me with it before we were married - I couldn't believe he'd cooked it! (I've since learned he is a good cook but keeps it quiet) He normally serves with some fresh steamed broccoli. As its so easy to make he passed the recipe onto a friend who wanted to impress his girlfriend but he didn't serve with any veggies and it does need something with it that's not baked - although she was impressed with the dish she told me. You can play around with the quantities to suit you as long as the basic ingredents are there. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right lamb chops: Look for chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Marinate the lamb chops: Marinating the lamb chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor.
  • 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 and tender.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the lamb chops are cooked to your desired doneness: For medium-rare, cook the lamb chops to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium, cook them to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. For well-done, cook them to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the lamb chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for lamb chops include roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This recipe for lamb chops and potatoes with olives, tomatoes, and feta cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner.
