Curried Lamb Chops

Ingredients

Directions

Sprinkle the chops on both sides with salt and pepper.

Rub them on both sides with curry powder to coat evenly.

Heat oil in a skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer.

Add the chops and cook until browned on one side, about 2 minutes.

Turn and brown on second side, about 2 minutes.

Turn onto the fatty rims and continue cooking until the rims are rendered of fat, about 2 minutes.

Turn the chops flat side down and cook, turning them occasionally.

The total cooking time should be about 15 minutes.

Transfer the chops to a dish and pour off all the fat from the skillet.

Add 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet and heat.

Add the shallots and cook, stirring, about 15 seconds.

Add the wine and bring to a boil.

Cook for about 1 minute and then add the chicken broth and tomato paste.

Cook over moderately high heat until reduced to about 1/3 cup.

Swirl in the remaining butter and pour the sauce over the chops.

Serve sprinkled with parsley.
