Best 5 Lamb Chops With Sorrel Sauce Recipes

LAMB CHOPS WITH GARLIC-ROSEMARY SAUCE

Steps:

• Chop garlic. Pat lamb dry and season with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sear lamb 3 minutes. Turn lamb over and sear 2 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer lamb to 4 plates. Add garlic, rosemary, lemon juice, and stock to skillet and deglaze over high heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Whisk in butter. Pour sauce over lamb.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH PINK PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the marinade for the lamb chops: Combine the oil, mustard, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, rosemary and garlic in a medium bowl. Place the lamb chops in a baking dish or large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the meat, turning to coat. Cover or seal. Marinate the lamb chops for at least 1 hour at room temperature or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
• Place a grill pan over medium heat until hot. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part (avoiding bone) registers 135 degrees F for medium-rare, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Remove the lamb chops from the grill and let rest 15 minutes before serving.
• Meanwhile, make the pink peppercorn sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Slowly pour in the brandy. (If using a gas cooktop, to avoid flare-ups from the alcohol, remove the pan from the heat before adding the brandy.) Cook until the alcohol cooks off, 1 to 2 minutes, stirring the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Slowly whisk in the heavy cream and peppercorns. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
• To serve, arrange the lamb chops on a platter. Garnish with parsley and rosemary and serve with the pink peppercorn sauce.

LAMB CHOPS WITH SORREL SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim the fat from the chops and wipe them dry with paper towels. Chop the sorrel into thin strips.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet and fry the lamb chops so that they are brown on both sides and pink in the middle. Place them on two dinner plates and keep warm.
• Drain off the fat and wipe the pan with paper towel. Add one tablespoon butter and saute the sorrel until wilted. Add the white wine and cook for a couple of minutes. Add the cream and cook for another three minutes. Add the lemon juice to taste and stir in the remaining butter gradually, so that the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pour the sauce over the lamb chops and serve.

LAMB CHOPS WITH LEMON-BASIL SAUCE

Steps:

• In a dish large enough to hold the lamb chops in a single layer, combine half the lemon juice, 1/3 cup olive oil, the rosemary, garlic, 1 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. Add the lamb, turn to coat with the marinade and set aside for about 15 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat, for about 1 minute. Pat the chops dry and season on 1 side with salt and pepper. Add enough oil to lightly coat the surface of the pan. Working in batches if needed, add the chops seasoned side down to the pan. Cook until crisp and brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season the top side with salt and pepper, turn, and continue cooking until just firm and an instant-read thermometer registers 130 to 135 degrees F, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm. Allow the chops to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Pour off any fat left in the pan. Return the skillet to medium heat. Add the chicken stock, and scrape up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add half the remaining lemon juice and simmer until the mixture is reduced to a glaze, about 4 minutes. Swirl in 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the basil and olives and season. Return the lamb chops to the sauce and toss and turn to coat thoroughly with sauce. Arrange chops on a platter, pour sauce over shops and garnish with basil leaves.

SEARED LAMB CHOPS WITH ANCHOVIES, CAPERS AND SAGE

Steps:

• Rinse the lamb chops and pat them dry. Season them with salt and pepper, and let rest for 15 minutes.
• Over medium-high heat, warm a skillet large enough to hold all the chops in one layer. Add the oil and when it shimmers, add the anchovies and capers. Cook, stirring, until the anchovies break down, about 3 minutes.
• Arrange the lamb chops in the skillet and fry, without moving them, until brown, about 3 minutes. Turn them over, and toss the sage leaves and pepper flakes into the pan. Cook until lamb reaches the desired doneness, about 2 minutes for medium-rare.
• Arrange the chops on serving plates. Add the garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute, then spoon the sauce over the lamb. Serve with the lemon wedges.
