Orange Lamb Chops Recipes

Steps:

• In a small pan, sauté sliced mushrooms in 1 teaspoon of butter, until mushroom juices evaporate; then set aside (if using canned mushrooms, omit this step).
• Trim excess fat from chops.
• Combine orange peel, juice and thyme; spoon mixture over chops.
• Let chops marinate for 1 hour at room temperature (or about 3 hours in refrigerator), turn chops once or twice.
• Remove chops from marinade, and reserve.
• Brown chops on both sides in hot shortening; season with salt and pepper.
• Add reserved orange mixture and mushrooms.
• Cover pan and simmer for 40 minutes.
• Uncover pan and simmer about 5 minutes longer.

Steps:

• For the chops: In a bowl, mix together the chili powder, salt, pepper, hot sauce and orange zest. Rub the mixture on all sides of the lamb chops. Place on a plate or baking sheet in a single layer and drizzle with some of the olive oil. Flip the chops and drizzle some on the other side. Rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Heat a grill to medium high. Place the chops over direct heat and grill just 1 to 2 minutes on one side. Flip, grilling just 1 to 2 minutes on the other side. Remove to a clean baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil.
• For the chutney: Place the orange sections in a large bowl. Squeeze the juice from the remaining membranes and flesh into a separate medium bowl. Add the marmalade, parsley, Worcestershire, hot sauce and scallion to the juice. Taste and season the sauce with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Pour over the orange sections in the large bowl and gently toss to coat. Serve over the rested lamb chops.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until soft. Add the orange juice and cook until reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Then add the tomatoes, ketchup, paprika, coriander, sugar, honey and vinegar and cook until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, season with salt and pepper and stir in the orange zest. Puree until smooth using an immersion blender. Remove 1/2 cup to serve with the cooked lamb. Let cool to room temperature.
• Heat the grill to high for direct grilling. Brush the lamb with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the chops on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip, brush with some of the sauce, and grill another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve with the reserved sauce.

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from lamb chops.
• Mix orange zest, garlic and thyme into a paste.
• Add mustard, brown sugar and olive oil, mix together.
• Preheat grill.
• Brush about half of the mixture onto each side of the chops and grill for about 2 minutes per side.
• Turn and brush he other half of the mixture onto the chops.
• Continue until done, season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan and cook until reduced to a sauce consistency. Strain and whisk in cold butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Parboil potatoes, cool and quarter. Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add potatoes and saute until lightly golden. Add garlic and spices and cook for 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add cilantro.
• Heat a large grill pan. Brush lamb chops with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill on each side for 2-3 minutes. Serve 3 per person, drizzle with blood orange sauce, toasted pinenuts and serve with potatoes.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown lamb chops in butter over medium heat. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the meat is tender, turning once. To serve, spoon sauce over the lamb.

Steps:

• Place lamb chops in a large bowl. Season with olive oil, garlic, cumin, mixed herbs, pepper, coriander, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt. Toss until well coated with oil and seasonings. Cover and refrigerate. Allow to marinate at least 4 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Place lamb chops on grill. Sprinkle the chops with a bit of salt. Grill until seared on the first side, 4 to 7 minutes depending on the size of the chops. Rotate chops a half turn on the grill about a minute before turning them. Turn and grill the other side to desired doneness, another 4 to 7 minutes. For medium rare, an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should bead 125 to 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Transfer to a serving dish and tent loosely with foil.
• Place marmalade in bowl. Add chili flakes, mint, and rice vinegar. Stir together thoroughly.
• Brush the sauce over the chops and serve.

Steps:

• Stir together capers, zest, garlic, and 1 tablespoon oil in a small bowl. Pat chops dry and season with salt. Arrange chops on a plate and spread about 2 teaspoons of caper mixture on top of each chop, pressing lightly to help adhere.
• Heat remaining tablespoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook chops, coated sides down, 6 minutes. Turn chops over with tongs and cook about 10 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer chops, coated sides up, to a clean plate and let stand 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Blood Orange Sauce: Place all ingredients for the sauce in a medium saucepan and cook until reduced to a sauce consistency.
• Strain, and whisk in cold butter.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Lamb Chops: Heat a large grill pan.
• Brush lamb chops with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Grill on each side for 2 to 3 minutes.

• Delicious when served with the recipe I posted here for Bobby Flay's Coriander Potatoes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Stir all the sauce ingredients together and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving (the sauce can be made a few hours in advance, covered, and kept refrigerated).
• Heat your grill to high.
• Brush the chops on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred and crusty, 3 minutes.
• Turn the chops over, reduce the heat to medium or move to a cooler part of the grill, and grill until just cooked through, 2-3 minutes more.
• At the same time, grill the orange halves cut side down until heated through and lightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and cut each half in half.
• Serve the chops immediately, garnishing each plate with yogurt sauce, an orange quarter and fresh mint. Squeeze the oranges over the chops before eating.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the garlic, orange zest, rosemary, salt, pepper and olive oil in a small bowl, and stir until combined. Rub the lamb with the garlic mixture, gently pressing it into the meat. Place the lamb, meat side up, on a rimmed baking sheet. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes. (This is a good time to start the creme fraiche potatoes.) Roast lamb in the center of the oven ‑- 15 to 20 minutes for rare (the internal temperature on a meat thermometer will read 125 degrees F), 20 to 30 minutes for medium rare (135 degrees F), 25 to 35 minutes for medium (145 degrees F).
• Cover the surface of the platter with rosemary. Slice the rack into chops at the table, and serve.
