Skinny Lamb Chops With Blackberry Red Wine Sauce Recipes

SKINNY LAMB CHOPS WITH BLACKBERRY-RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• For sauce: In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add pear, green onions, and cloves; cook about 3 minutes or just until pear is tender.
• Add blackberries; reduce heat. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring often; remove from heat. Stir in red wine vinegar. Set aside to cool.
• In a small bowl, stir together allspice, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle evenly over chops; rub in with your fingers. Place chops on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill until desired doneness, turning once halfway through grilling. Allow 12 to 14 minutes for medium-rare doneness (145°F) or 15 to 17 minutes for medium doneness (160°F).

LAMB SHOULDER CHOPS WITH RED WINE

Steps:

• Put a 10-inch straight-sided saute pan over medium heat for 5 minutes. Toss the lamb with the vegetable oil in a medium mixing bowl. When the pan is hot, sear the lamb for 1 minute on each side. Remove to a plate and cool for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the meat to a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag, then pour in the 16 ounces of wine and 4 rosemary sprigs. Remove as much air as possible so that the wine is completely surrounding the meat. Put the bag in a container to prevent leaks and refrigerate for 3 hours.
• Heat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Transfer the contents of the bag back to the 10-inch straight-sided saute pan and cover. Put the pan on the middle rack of the oven and braise until the meat is tender and falling away from the bone, about 3 1/2 hours.
• Remove the meat from the oven to a platter. Discard the rosemary. Cover the meat with aluminum foil to keep warm while finishing the sauce.
• Pour the pan juices into a gravy separator and allow it to separate before pouring 2 cups of the liquid back into the pan. Set the pan over medium-low heat and add the dried plums and apricots. Simmer, whisking frequently, until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Whisk in the butter 1 piece at a time, adding another piece only after the previous piece has melted. Whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon of wine and the remaining chopped rosemary and continue to cook for another minute. Taste and adjust seasoning by adding salt and pepper, if needed.
• Pour the sauce over the meat and serve immediately.

LAMB CHOPS WITH BLACKBERRY PAN SAUCE AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Season lamb chops with a 5-finger pinch of salt on all sides as well as black pepper. Heat a large sauté pan (not non-stick) over high heat and add canola oil. Once the oil shimmers when you tilt the pan (this means it's sizzling hot), add the chops in a single layer (sear in 2 batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding the pan). Sear until chops are well browned, and beginning to char around edges, about 3 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other side. Transfer to a baking sheet (reserve pan and drippings) and continue to cook in oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the chop registers 145° for medium-rare, about 5 minutes.
• If necessary, pour off excess fat from pan to equal about two tablespoons (this might not be necessary, depending on the fat content of the chops). Add shallot and rosemary to pan over medium-low heat and cook, frequently stirring to scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add about 1 cup of the blackberries (reserving a few for the salad), and cook until softening and releasing their juice, about 3 minutes. Add wine and increase heat to medium. Cook until wine is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and swirl in butter and season with scant 1/2-teaspoon salt.
• Arrange arugula on a large platter. Mix lemon juice with olive oil in a small bowl with the remaining 1/2-teaspoon salt. Drizzle over arugula and toss gently with reserved blackberries. Place lamb chop on top of the arugula and spoon the pan sauce over the chops and some of the arugula.
• Pair with a rich and full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon from Tom Gore Vineyards.
