INGREDIENTS
LAMB INGREDIENTS:
- 8-10 Lamb Chops
- 2 tsp of Rosemary minced
- 6 Garlic Heads minced
- 2 tsp of Thyme minced
- 1 tbsp of Kosher Salt
- 1 tbsp of Black Pepper
- 1 Lemon juiced
- 1.5 tbsp of Oil
- Chopped Parsley for garnish
PAN SAUCE:
- 1 tbsp of Cognac
- 4 Garlic Cloves minced
- 2 tbsp of Balsamic Vinegar
- 5 tbsp of Butter
- ⅛ cup of Dijon Mustard
INSTRUCTIONS
-
In a bowl, mix together the rosemary, minced garlic, thyme, kosher salt and black pepper. Pat your lamb chops dry and season thoroughly with the seasoning mixture. Set aside until you are ready to use.
-
Preheat your grill to medium high temperature (about 375F). Add a cast iron skillet on the grill 1-2 minutes before cooking with oil to preheat.
-
Add your lamb chops to the grill and cook for about 3 minutes per side or until they reach 145F internal for medium rare. Right before pulling them off, squeeze lemon juice over the top. Once done, pull them off and let rest.
-
Pull your skillet off the high heat to a more medium-low temperature (around 300F). Deglaze the skillet with the cognac. Next, add the garlic cloves and let brown (about 1 minute). Finally, add your butter, dijon mustard and balsamic vinegar. Mix together thoroughly. Move the skillet away from heat in order to prevent burning.
-
Once the pan sauce is ready to go, add your lamb chops back to the skillet to simmer for 1 minute. Top with chopped parsley and enjoy!
