Broiled Lamb Chops With Onions And Sherry Sauce Recipes

BROILED LAMB CHOPS WITH MUSTARD HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• Mix together first 5 ingredients.
• Trim excess fat from chops; place chops on grill.
• Generously spread chops with half of spice mixture and baste during grilling.

SHERRIED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Trim as much fat as possible off the lamb chops. If there is meat on the loose ends of the chops, roll them up and secure to the eye of the chop with a toothpick. Otherwise cut these tails off. Dust chops lightly with flour seasoned with salt and pepper
• Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chops in a single layer. Over high heat lightly and quickly brown the chops on both sides. Remove them and cover to keep warm.
• Lower heat to medium, add the pepper and onions and saute until tender. Add the garlic and saute for another minute or two but do not allow the garlic to brown. Stir in the sherry, tomatoes and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Return chops to the pan and cook over medium heat, basting constantly with the sauce, until cooked as desired. For medium-rare chops, the cooking time is no more than about three minutes. The tops will be medium in about five minutes and well done in seven to eight minutes. For well-done chops the pan should be covered so too much of the sauce does not evaporate.
• Sprinkle with parsley and olives, garnish with lemon wedges and serve.
