Description
Tender lamb chops seared to perfection and finished with a rich, sweet-and-savory glaze of honey, garlic, and red wine.
Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 8 lamb chops (about 1.5 inches thick)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup dry red wine
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Season lamb chops generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add lamb chops and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Remove chops and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in red wine, honey, balsamic vinegar, and rosemary. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly.
- Stir in butter until melted and glossy. Return lamb chops to the skillet, spooning the glaze over them. Cook for 1-2 minutes to warm through.
- Serve immediately, drizzled with extra glaze.
