Citrus herb lamb chops My husband absolutely loves lamb chops. Made these with some creamy Parmesan mashed potatoes & some din tai fung inspired garlic green beans Ingredients 2 racks of lamb chops Olive oil 1 stick and a half of unsalted butter 3 cloves of garlic Zest of 3 lemons Sage Thyme Oregano Parsley Garlic powder Salt & pepper Start by scoring your lamb racks cross hatch style on the fat side and seasoning with salt. Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes the salt will help draw out the moisture for the perfect sear In a food processor add in your butter, lemon zest, roughly chopped garlic and seasonings ( I did about a 1/2 to a full teaspoon of each seasoning). Set aside Take your lamb racks out the fridge and let sit for about 10 minutes before searing Using a cast iron griddle or skillet heat on medium-high, add in your olive oil and start searing your racks fat side down then sear the rest. Remove your racks from the heat and let rest for 10 minutes. Once rested cut your lamb chops to your desire size (single or double boned) Place your lamb chops on your hot griddle/skillet and add in a hefty amount of your citrus herb butter ontop of each lamb chop. After 2 minutes flip and allow to sear on the other side. Doing so on high heat will get you a delicious medium rare with a perfect sear, lower the heat and leave for longer if you prefer medium-well Remove from heat and allow them to rest for atleast 5 minutes and reserve your butter from your griddle. Serve over your mashed potatoes & green beans add your reserved butter and the juice of a lemon wedge for extra tang, ENJOY #lambchops #lambrack #dinnerideas #mashedpotatoes #garlicgreenbeans
