Lamb Chops With Thyme & Red Wine

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.

Great recipe. I wonder how much more whole wheat flour I could get away with. Also...I've learned that I can use doctorgrandmas delight, which is an all natural and calorie free sugar replacement, instead of sugar. I still need to use a pinch of sugar to jump start yeast in yeast recipes. Also, reminder...use fresh baking soda!
