GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH PORCINI MUSTARD

Steps:

• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure . Soak mushrooms in boiling-hot water (2 cups) until softened, about 20 minutes. Lift mushrooms out of water and strain liquid through a paper-towel-lined sieve set over a small saucepan. Coarsely chop mushrooms.
• Boil mushroom liquid in saucepan until reduced to about 1/4 cup, 13 to 15 minutes. Whisk in mustard, butter, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in mushrooms. Transfer to a small bowl and cool slightly. Stir in 2 tablespoon parsley.

LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT AND MUSTARD DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat broiler to high. Place garlic in a small saucepan and add 2/3 cup oil, to cover. Heat oil and garlic over low heat for 5 minutes. Remove oil from heat. Arrange lamb chops on broiler pan. Drizzle 3 teaspoonfuls of the garlic oil over the lamb and spread the oil over the chops with a brush to coat evenly. Season chops with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• To a food processor or blender, add mustard, vinegar, honey. Turn processor or blender on and stream in remaining garlic and oil. Turn the processor or blender off and add mint to the container. Pulse and grind the dipping sauce to incorporate the leaves.
• Broil chops 3 minutes on each side, then let them rest up to 10 minutes for the juices to distribute. The lamb will be cooked to medium. Serve 3 chops per person with dipping sauce portioned in radicchio leaves along side the chops. Garnish with sprigs of mint. Tabbouleh stuffed tomatoes and white beans with thyme make wonderful side dishes. See recipes below.

GRILLED MARINATED LAMB CHOPS WITH CREAMY PARMESAN ONIONS

Steps:

• Lamb Chops and Marinade -- Mix the olive oil, lemon juice, tomatoes, rosemary, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper in a large baggie and shake and mix well. Add the lamb chops and let marinade all night and the next day. At least 8 hours. Then remove from the refrigerator and set on the counter to bring to room temp before grilling. Now we can make the onions.
• Onions -- Bring a large pot of salted water (just enough to cover the onions) up to boil and add the onions. Boil for 8-10 minutes until tender. Make sure to reserve 1/4 of the liquid for the sauce then drain the onions.
• Cream sauce -- In a small pot, add the butter and melt, then stir in the garlic and cook just a minute. Add in flour and cook one more minute. Don't let the flour brown. Add in the onion water and then the milk slowly and whisk as you go over medium heat. Season with the nutmeg, salt and pepper and slowly bring up to a medium boil until the sauce thickens.
• Bake -- In a 8x8" baking dish, spray with Pam or a non sick spray and add the onions. Top with the sauce and then the parmesan cheese. Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 20-30 minutes uncovered until lightly brown on the top.
• Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the veal or beef stock, white wine and tomato paste and cook on medium low heat until it reduces by about half. Just let it simmer as the potatoes cook and you grill the lamb.
• Grilling -- As the onions bake, heat up your outside grill, or grill pan. You could also use a cast iron skillet or a stainless pan. First remove some of the marinade from the chops. I just use a flat knife to scrape off the extra marinade, then discard the marinade. We won't be using that. I add just a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan or grill. The lamb chops don't take long about 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare. I remove at 140 and then let set covered 5-7 minutes for perfectly medium rare chops.
• Plating -- Just add some of the creamy onions on your plate and top with a couple of the grilled chops and then drizzle just a couple of teaspoons of the beef, wine and tomato sauce over the chops.
• Add a nice salad or a green vegetable and that is a 5 star menu.

MUSTARD-BARBECUED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• To make the sauce, heat the canola oil in a medium-size saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot and garlic and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the chili and vinegar and stir 1 minute. Add the ketchup, mustard and honey. Turn the heat to low and simmer 25 minutes. Let cool slightly and puree in a blender. Strain. Thin with a little water, if needed.
• Start a charcoal grill. Wipe the marinade off the lamb and grill the meat until medium rare. About a minute before the lamb is done, brush the lamb on both sides with the sauce. Serve with additional sauce.

RACK OF LAMB WITH GARLIC-CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Place garlic, shallot and cream in a small saucepan. Bring to barely a simmer, cover and cook until garlic and shallot are very soft, 1 to 2 hours. Transfer to a blender and purée, adding more cream as needed. Set aside.
• Rub lamb all over with thyme; discard sprigs. Brush lamb with olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Sear or grill over medium-high heat until lamb reaches desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium.
• Reheat garlic mixture over very low heat (do not boil), adding more cream if sauce is too thick. Season lightly with salt and serve with lamb chops.
