Lamb Chops With Coarse Grain Mustard Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine mustard and garlic. In a wide shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, rosemary, and dried herbs; whisk to combine. Pat lamb chops dry with a paper towel and season with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. With a basting brush, lightly coat lamb chops with mustard mixture, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture.
• In a large nonstick saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add half the lamb chops to pan and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining chops and oil. Let lamb chops rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Season lamb with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, melt butter and oil over medium-high heat. When skillet and oil are hot, place chops down in a single layer. Cook for 3 minutes per side or according to desired doneness.
• Transfer chops to a plate and loosely tent with foil to retain heat. Spoon out any fat in excess of 1 tablespoon. Add shallots and saute until softened. Stir in mustard and deglaze with cognac, scraping bottom of pan with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When cognac has reduced to about 1 tablespoon, stir in cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in tarragon leaves immediately before serving. Place two or three chops on each plate and spoon the sauce over them.

Steps:

• Prepare grill for cooking or heat a well-seasoned ridged grill pan (preferably cast-iron) over moderately high heat until hot.
• Pat chops dry and season with salt and pepper. Grill until undersides are browned, about 3 minutes, then turn over and spread browned sides with mustard. Grill about 4 minutes more for medium-rare.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler to high. Place garlic in a small saucepan and add 2/3 cup oil, to cover. Heat oil and garlic over low heat for 5 minutes. Remove oil from heat. Arrange lamb chops on broiler pan. Drizzle 3 teaspoonfuls of the garlic oil over the lamb and spread the oil over the chops with a brush to coat evenly. Season chops with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• To a food processor or blender, add mustard, vinegar, honey. Turn processor or blender on and stream in remaining garlic and oil. Turn the processor or blender off and add mint to the container. Pulse and grind the dipping sauce to incorporate the leaves.
• Broil chops 3 minutes on each side, then let them rest up to 10 minutes for the juices to distribute. The lamb will be cooked to medium. Serve 3 chops per person with dipping sauce portioned in radicchio leaves along side the chops. Garnish with sprigs of mint. Tabbouleh stuffed tomatoes and white beans with thyme make wonderful side dishes. See recipes below.

Steps:

• Make a dressing by mixing together the mustard, vinegar and honey. Spread ½ tsp over each steak and season well, reserving the remaining dressing. Tip the breadcrumbs out onto a plate and sprinkle over the lemon zest. Dip the steaks in this until coated. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and, when hot, cook the lamb until crisp and cooked through, about 7 mins on each side.
• Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in salted water for about 10 mins until soft, adding the broccoli for the final 5 mins of cooking. Drain and roughly mash together. Serve alongside the lamb with the leftover dressing drizzled over.

Steps:

• Open lamb like book on work surface. Using tip of small knife, make 1/2-inch-deep slits all over lamb. Thinly slice 4 garlic cloves. Insert garlic slices into slits in lamb. Combine remaining 4 garlic cloves, mustard, olive oil, white wine, rosemary, and lemon juice in processor. Blend until coarse puree forms. Spread underside of lamb with half of puree. Place lamb, seasoned side down, in 15 x 10 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Spread remaining puree over top of lamb. Cover lamb with plastic wrap and chill overnight.
• Let lamb stand at room temperature 2 hours. Coat grill rack with nonstick spray and prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Sprinkle lamb generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Grill lamb to desired doneness, about 17 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer lamb to cutting board; let rest 10 to 20 minutes.
• Thinly slice lamb against grain. Overlap slices on platter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh herb sprigs.
• What to drink:
• Syrah would be delicious with the grilled lamb. Mix things up by skipping California and Australian Syrahs and going with an Italian Syrah instead. One to try: the velvety, full-bodied 2006 Villa Pillo Syrah Toscana ($16, Italy).

Steps:

• In the morning, get out a large bowl or dish. In it, combine the lamb chops with the rosemary and garlic. Sprinkle enough olive oil over the chops to coat them lightly. Toss to coat, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until an hour before dinner, giving them a stir every few hours.
• An hour before serving, set out the chops to bring them to room temperature. Preheat a grill to medium high or a broiler. Season the chops with salt and pepper. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, turning them just once, so that they are nicely browned on the edges but still quite pink inside. Pile onto a warm serving platter and set on the table.
