SPICE-RUBBED LAMB CHOPS WITH ROASTED TOMATOES



Spice-Rubbed Lamb Chops with Roasted Tomatoes image

Categories     Lamb     Tomato     Bake     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 plum tomatoes, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices
3 teaspoons olive oil
two 3/4-to 1-inch-thick shoulder lamb chops (8 to 10 ounces each)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. and lightly oil a baking pan.
  • Arrange tomatoes in one layer in prepared pan and brush with 1 teaspoon oil. Roast tomatoes in middle of oven 20 minutes, or until browned lightly, and keep warm.
  • Pat lamb chops dry. In a small dish stir together cumin, salt, and pepper and rub mixture on both sides of lamb chops.
  • In a 9-inch heavy non-stick skillet heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook lamb chops 3 to 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat. Transfer lamb chops to 2 plates and serve with roasted tomatoes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb chops. Look for chops that are well-marbled and have a good amount of meat on them. Avoid chops that are thin or have a lot of bone.
  • Use a flavorful spice rub. The spice rub is what gives the lamb chops their delicious flavor. Be sure to use a blend of spices that you enjoy. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Let the lamb chops marinate for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors of the spice rub to penetrate the meat.
  • Cook the lamb chops over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the lamb chops are cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare lamb chops, cook them to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium lamb chops, cook them to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the lamb chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Spice-rubbed lamb chops with roasted tomatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The lamb chops are tender and flavorful, and the roasted tomatoes are a delicious and healthy side dish. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
