Directions for Lamb chops:

Either using a large cast iron pan with oil rubbed on surface, or a nonstick pan, heat until it smokes gently.

Sear the lamb chops on each side for about 2-3 minutes.

Set chops aside and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes on paper towels to drain the excess fat.

Place the seared lamb chops into the sauce and allow them to simmer for an additional 10 minutes.

Serve with your favorite rice, quinoa, polenta, bread, or salad.

As with all red meats, ensure you remove all excess fat and eat in moderation. As always, I wish you live long and strong.
