Lamb Loin Chops In The Oven Recipes

LAMB CHOPS IN OVEN (MARINATED)

Steps:

• Make a marinade by mixing the listed ingredients. Completely cover the lamb chops and refrigerate for 1 to 12 hours in a glass container with a lid or sealed plastic bag.
• Preheat the oven to 400 F. Scrape off the marinade from the lamb chops and discard. Pat them dry.
• Over medium-high heat heat an oven-safe heavy bottomed skillet and add 1 tbsp olive oil. Season the chops with salt and pepper and sear them for 1.5 minutes per side.
• Transfer to the oven and cook until the internal temperature reaches 135 F for medium (about 8 minutes), or 125 F for medium-rare (about 6 minutes).
• Take out the chops from the oven, transfer to a plate, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
• While the chops are resting you can prepare the Dijon Mustard Dill Sauce. In the same skillet where you cooked the chops over medium heat add the cream, mustard and honey. Stir to mix and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add the dill, stir and transfer to a serving dish. Alternatively add the rested lamb chops to the sauce in the skillet and serve family style.

• Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large oven safe skillet.

GRILLED LAMB LOIN CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine herbes de Provence, olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Rub mixture over lamb chops and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Season chops with salt and pepper.
• Place chops on the preheated grill and cook until browned and medium-rare on the inside, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from grill and place on an aluminum foil-covered plate to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

SEARED LAMB LOIN CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Generously season chops with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil. Place in skillet and cook until chops reach 130 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and loosely cover with aluminum foil. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

ROSEMARY ROAST LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Turn the oven to fan 200C/ conventional 220C/gas 7. Heat half the oil in a flameproof roasting tin or ovenproof sauté pan. Brown the lamb for 2 minutes on each side, then lift out of the pan and set aside. Add the rest of the oil to the pan, add the potatoes, then fry for 4-5 minutes, until starting to brown. Add the rosemary and garlic, then return the lamb to the pan, too.
• Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, then scatter over the tomatoes and drizzle with the balsamic vinegar. Place back in the oven for 5 minutes, until the tomatoes just begin to split. Remove from the oven and serve straight from the dish.

OVEN-ROASTED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Cut away excess fat from the lamb chops (some fat does add flavor). Coat each chop lightly in olive oil. Dust lamb chops with garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Place lamb chops in a cast iron skillet.
• Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium-well doneness.
• Remove from the oven and cover tightly with foil; let rest for 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with mint jelly on the side,

LAMB LOIN CHOPS WITH WARM POLENTA AND ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• Combine herbs with a drizzle of olive oil and salt and pepper. Rub onto chops. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours.
• For the Polenta Salad: Bring the stock to a boil. Stir in polenta and lower heat. Continue to stir until bubbling. Add garlic, cheese, parsley and salt and pepper, to taste. Stir well. Pour into a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
• For the sauce: Warm olive oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Remove from heat and add the garlic slivers. Combine with the lamb stock, soy sauce and a few drops of lemon juice. Keep warm.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees To assemble the plate, invert the polenta onto a cutting board and cut into 1-inch squares. Grill or pan-roast the lamb chops to desired temperature, about 4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Warm the polenta "croutons" in the oven in a nonstick, ovenproof saute pan. When hot, toss the croutons with the arugula, olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper.
• Arrange 2 lamb chops on each plate with some salad and spoon warm sauce over the meat.

MARINATED LAMB LAMB LOIN CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix together all of the marinade ingredients and place in a shallow casserole dish along with the lamb ensuring the marinade coats the lamb well. Refrigerate for at least two hours or up till 6 hours. Remove from the refrigerator 45 minutes before you are ready to cook to allow the meat to come to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F Heat a heavy oven-proof frying pan at medium high heat. Sear the lamb very well one both sides until golden brown. Place the pan in the hot oven until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness. We find 6 to 8 minutes will cook our 2 inch lamb chops to a nice warm rare. Serve hot.

LEMON AND OREGANO LAMB LOIN CHOPS

Steps:

• Place the chops in a non-reactive container, add the remaining ingredients and mix and massage them into the chops with your hands.
• Set aside for about 1 hour to marinate.
• Heat your grill or broiler, and cook the chops to your liking-we find about 3 minutes on a hot grill is enough for the little frenched ones.
