WOULD YOU EAT THIS TREMENDOUS LAMB CHOPS WITH MUSTARD THYME SAUCE 🍖🍯🌿
Ingredients:
For the Lamb Chops:
8 lamb chops (about 1-inch thick)
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves (or 1 tsp dried thyme)
For the Mustard Thyme Sauce:
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp whole grain mustard
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves (or 1 tsp dried thyme)
1 tbsp butter
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
Prepare the Lamb Chops:
Season the lamb chops with salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme leaves.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb chops for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (medium-rare is typically 145°F or 63°C). Remove the lamb chops from the skillet and let them rest while you make the sauce.
Make the Mustard Thyme Sauce:
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, heavy cream, chicken broth, and fresh thyme leaves. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
Cook the sauce for 3-4 minutes, or until it thickens slightly. Stir in the butter until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve:
Return the lamb chops to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them. Cook for an additional minute to warm the chops through.
Serve the lamb chops hot with extra sauce drizzled over the top. Pair with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
