Mushroom Swiss Lamb Chops Recipes

HERB AND MUSHROOM LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Pat chops dry and remove any bone fragments.
• Mix olive oil, ginger-garlic paste, chili powder, cumin, paprika, pepper, salt, and garam masala together in a glass or ceramic bowl. Rub mixture on both sides of the lamb chops. Cover chops with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 to 40 minutes, or overnight.
• Let chops sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high to high heat until smoking; add the chops. If it is a big pan, all can be cooked in one batch, if not, in 2 batches. Cook until firm and slightly pink in the centers, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium doneness. Remove to a plate.
• Prepare sauce: Heat butter in the same pan over medium heat. Saute shallot until light golden, about 5 minutes; add mushrooms and fry until slightly browned. Add garlic and cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in 1 tablespoon each rosemary and thyme. Pour in wine and bring to a simmer while scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until reduced and thickened.
• Remove from heat. Arrange the chops in the sauce and let sit to absorb flavors, about 5 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and garnish with remaining rosemary and thyme; sprinkle with sliced chiles.

LAMB CHOPS WITH MUSHROOM WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sauté the chops, seasoned with salt and pepper, flattening them occasionally with a metal spatula, for 4 minutes on each side for medium meat.
• Transfer the chops with a slotted spatula to a small platter and keep them warm, covered loosely with foil.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat and in the remaining fat cook the garlic over moderate heat, stirring, until it is pale golden.
• Add the onion and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Add the mushrooms and the soy sauce and cook the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, until the liquid the mushrooms give off is evaporated.
• Add the vinegar and boil the mixture until the liquid is evaporated.
• Add the wine and the thyme and boil the mixture until almost all the liquid is evaporated.
• Stir the cornstarch mixture, add it to the skillet, and bring the sauce to a boil, stirring.
• Season the sauce with salt and pepper, spoon it over the chops, and sprinkle the chops with the parsley.

LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT SAUCE AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Make mint sauce: In a small bowl, combine vinegar, mustard, and honey. Whisk in oil and mint. Season with salt and pepper; set aside. If making ahead, cover and refrigerate up to 1 day. Before serving, bring to room temperature, and whisk.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Season lamb with pepper. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon coarse salt evenly in skillet. Add chops; cook 2 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate; cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• Melt half the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water; stir, scraping up browned bits, and cook until liquid has evaporated, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in remaining butter; season with salt and pepper. Arrange chops on serving plates, and top with mint sauce. Serve with mushrooms and Easy Celery Root Puree.
