Sweetbreads are tasty and easily digested. I couldn't find a spicy recipe so invented this simple, delicious dish. The sliced jalapeno gives a lovely bite of heat.

Time 1h49m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

16 ounces lamb sweetbreads
7 tablespoons butter, divided
½ lemon, juiced
salt to taste
2 large portobello mushrooms, diced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup warmed milk, or to taste
2 cups frozen peas
1 jalapeno pepper, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Soak sweetbreads in a large bowl of water for 1 hour; drain.
  • Place sweetbreads in a saucepan and cover with cold water; bring to a boil. Drain. Run cold water over sweetbreads to cool.
  • Return sweetbreads to the saucepan and cover with cold water again. Add 1 tablespoon butter, lemon juice, and salt; bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add flour; cook and stir until a paste forms, about 1 minute. Season with paprika and cayenne. Pour in milk slowly, whisking until sauce is smooth, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Stir sweetbreads, mushrooms, and peas into the sauce; cook until peas are heated through, about 5 minutes. Season sweetbreads with salt. Serve garnished with jalapeno pepper.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sweetbreads turned out tough and chewy. I'm not sure what went wrong.
