Lamb Chops With Thyme & Red Wine

Rate this recipe, your opinion countsPrint this recipeSend this recipe via email

I wouldn't think of making roast beef, pot roast, beef stew, or osso buco without thyme. I also use it on steaks and chops as in the below recipe for lamb, which in my opinion, has the best affinity for thyme.

Ingredients

4 x lamb rib chops
1 x olive oil as needed
1 x salt to taste
1 x black pepper to taste
1/2 cup red wine
2 tablespoons butter cold

Directions

I never measure the thyme for this dish but simply "eyeball" it.

Brush the chops with olive oil and sprinkle them with dried thyme, salt and pepper.

Heat up a sauté pan, add olive oil, and when it just starts to smoke add the chops.

Sear them on each side and set aside.

Pour out the excess oil if desired and deglaze the pan with the red wine.

Sprinkle the wine with more dried thyme.

Reduce the wine by half.

Return the chops to the pan and add the butter.

Serve the chops as soon as the butter has melted into the sauce.

Popeye's Secret Weapon

by Mark R. Vogel Mark R. Vogel

Spinach may have provided Popeye with superhuman strength, but its real life potential is far less lofty. In fact, its nutritional reputation is somewhat inflated. Spinach contains oxalic acid which ...

Roasted Sticky Chicken

Excellent, the flesh simply falls off the bone, unbelievably tender and the dry spice rub makes for a crispy very tasty skin. One of the best roast chicken I have ever made.
