LAMB CHOPS WITH BLACKBERRY PAN SAUCE AND ARUGULA



Lamb Chops with Blackberry Pan Sauce and Arugula image

A mouthwatering recipe with a jammy pan reduction made with blackberry, shallots, fresh rosemary, and a splash of wine to balance the dish.

Provided by Chef Mary Nolan

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 lamb loin chops, about 2 1/2 pounds
kosher salt for sprinkling, plus 1 teaspoon, divided
freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
1 large shallot, diced (about 1/3 cup)
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary leaves
1 6 oz. package blackberries, halved (or quartered if very large), divided
1/2 cup red wine
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
6 cups (about 4 oz.) loosely packed arugula
5 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Season lamb chops with a 5-finger pinch of salt on all sides as well as black pepper. Heat a large sauté pan (not non-stick) over high heat and add canola oil. Once the oil shimmers when you tilt the pan (this means it's sizzling hot), add the chops in a single layer (sear in 2 batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding the pan). Sear until chops are well browned, and beginning to char around edges, about 3 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other side. Transfer to a baking sheet (reserve pan and drippings) and continue to cook in oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the chop registers 145° for medium-rare, about 5 minutes.
  • If necessary, pour off excess fat from pan to equal about two tablespoons (this might not be necessary, depending on the fat content of the chops). Add shallot and rosemary to pan over medium-low heat and cook, frequently stirring to scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add about 1 cup of the blackberries (reserving a few for the salad), and cook until softening and releasing their juice, about 3 minutes. Add wine and increase heat to medium. Cook until wine is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and swirl in butter and season with scant 1/2-teaspoon salt.
  • Arrange arugula on a large platter. Mix lemon juice with olive oil in a small bowl with the remaining 1/2-teaspoon salt. Drizzle over arugula and toss gently with reserved blackberries. Place lamb chop on top of the arugula and spoon the pan sauce over the chops and some of the arugula.
  • Pair with a rich and full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon from Tom Gore Vineyards.

1 tablespoon olive oil
two 1/2-inch-thick lamb shoulder chops (about 1 pound total), patted dry

LAMB CHOPS WITH RED WINE AND ROSEMARY SAUCE



Lamb Chops With Red Wine and Rosemary Sauce image

This recipe for this dish is one that I received a while back, in one of my cooking classes on American Bistro. I have since changed and added some ingredients to suit my taste. It is a lovely dish, that is fairly quick, easy to make and very tasty. Most ingredients are ones you may have on hand. The sauce is a lovely compliment to the lamb. Served with a side of wild rice and a green salad or veggie, it is a perfect dinner.

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 lamb chops, fat trimmed
salt & fresh ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 large shallot, finely chopped
3/4 cup dry red wine
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
3/4 cup chicken broth or 3/4 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon flour
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season lamb chops with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • Add the oil to the skillet. Add chops to the pan cook 4 minutes.
  • Turn chops over and cook 3 minutes longer.
  • Remove chops from the skillet and set aside in a warm place.
  • Pour off all but 2 tsp of fat from skillet. Add the garlic and shallot. Cook until they become transparent and tender.
  • Add the wine, rosemary, and parsley, stirring up browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Simmer over high heat until syrupy. That will take about 3 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth and continue to simmer until sauce is reduced by about half.
  • Combine butter and flour in a cup (beurre manie).
  • Stir mustard and cream into sauce. Adjust seasonings. Bring to a boil.
  • Add beurre manie to sauce and stir well until incorporated into sauce and sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove sauce from heat.
  • Plate chops, 2 per plate, and add sauce over top. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary.
  • Serve Immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Look for lamb chops that are fresh, not frozen, and have a good amount of marbling. Choose blackberries that are ripe and plump, and use a good quality red wine.
  • Don't overcook the lamb chops. Lamb chops are best when cooked medium-rare or medium. Overcooked lamb chops will be tough and dry.
  • Make sure the sauce is well-seasoned. The sauce is what really brings this dish together, so make sure it's well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and herbs. You can also add a touch of honey or maple syrup to balance out the acidity of the red wine.
  • Serve the lamb chops immediately. Lamb chops are best served immediately after they are cooked, so that they can be enjoyed at their juiciest and most flavorful.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Skinny Lamb Chops with Blackberry Red Wine Sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The lamb chops are tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and decadent. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it's also relatively easy to make.
