Italian Style Lamb Chops

You could sauté them, braise them or broil them or grill them. Serving the lamb with a side of sautéed carrots, zucchini and red onions, will surely make this dish a memorable one.

INGREDIENTS

• 6 to 8 lamb chops

• 1 small zucchini cut into circles

• 1 red onion halved and sliced thin

• 8 baby carrots peeled and left whole

• 3 cloves of garlic chopped

• 1/4 tsp of dried rosemary

• 1/4 tsp of dried oregano

• 1/4 tsp of dried mint

• 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil

• Salt and pepper to taste

  PREPARATION

• Place the lamb, oil, rosemary, oregano, mint and garlic in a large plastic bag and marinate in the frig for at least 2 hours turning once.

• We can make these two ways. The first way would be to sauté the lamb in a large skillet for about two minutes on each side and remove from pan.

• Add the vegetables to the skillet and sauté 5 minutes.

• Return the chops to the skillet and cook around 2 minutes more.

• Plate and top with vegetables.

• The second way is my favorite. Broil or grill the chops for 3 minutes on each side.

• Saute the vegetables in a skillet.

• Plate the chops and server the vegetables next to them
