Mums French Onion Lamb Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Mix water and french onion soup mix together, set aside.
• Trim lamb chops of all visible fat.
• Place 3 chops in a casserole dish and top with half the French Onion mix, add the rest of the chops and top with the remaining French Onion Mix.
• Cover with lid (or foil) and bake in 180c oven for about 1 hour.
• I usually check them after 30 minutes and add more water if it looks a little dry.
• Serve with mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 275 degrees. Lightly season lamb with salt and pepper on all sides. Heat the oil in a 7- to 8-quart Dutch oven over medium-high until shimmering. Add the lamb shanks and cook, turning occasionally, until well-browned on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer the lamb to a rimmed baking sheet or large plate, and set aside.
• Add the onions, leeks and carrots to the Dutch oven. Reduce heat to medium. Season lightly with salt and cook, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the Dutch oven with a wooden spoon, until the onions and leeks are as caramelized as you'd like, about 20 minutes for lightly caramelized onions that give the stew a more savory flavor, or 45 minutes or longer for deeply caramelized onions that will make the stew sweeter. If browned bits start building up on the bottom of the pot, add water a tablespoon at a time, scraping them up and reincorporating them before continuing.
• When the onions are ready, add the garlic, and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and stir until it evenly coats all of the vegetables. Add the wine, scrape the bottom and sides of the pot, and cook until the wine is reduced by at least half, a minute or two. Add the chicken stock and the rosemary. (Tie the rosemary into a bundle with kitchen twine if you want to make it easier on yourself later.)
• Return the lamb shanks to the pot. Increase heat to high, bring the pot to a simmer, and transfer to the oven. Place a lid on top, leaving it cracked by an inch or so. Cook for 2 1/2 hours, then remove from oven. Flip the lamb, and stir the barley and spinach into the broth, making sure it's all submerged. Return to the oven, cover with the lid cracked, and continue cooking until a metal skewer inserted into the lamb meets very little resistance, the meat falls off the bone with a little tug, and the barley is fully cooked but still chewy, 30 to 45 minutes longer.
• Transfer the pot to the stovetop, remove and discard the rosemary, and adjust the consistency to a saucy, stewlike mixture by simmering to thicken, or thin it out by adding water. Stirring as you go to prevent the bottom from sticking. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Place aluminium foil in a baking dish. Leave enough overlap to fold over chops.
• Sprinkle one packet of french onion soup over the foil.
• Place chops on top of dry soup mix.
• Sprinkle other packet of french onion soup on top of chops.
• Fold foil over.
• cook in oven (160 degrees celcius) for 50-60 minutes. Unfold foil for 5-10 minutes.
• Remove from oven.
• Serve with mashed potato and steamed vegetables.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 190 degrees celciuis.
• Take a baking tray and place a large sheet of foil on top. Make sure foil is long enough make a pouch to fit the chops in flat.
• Place the chops on the foil and coat the top of each one with soup powder. The more powder you use the more 'jelly' you will have for each chop and the stronger the flavor.
• Wrap foil over the top of the chops to make a package and fold to seal.
• Bake for 30 mins (be careful when opening the package as hot steam will come out).
