Only a few ingredients and a simple skillet preparation. From a magazine. Says it goes nicely with couscous and a veggie like sugar snap peas. Ingredients:
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped |
1/2 cup plain yogurt |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
salt |
pepper |
6 lamb chops, from the rib, 1-inch thick |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Stir together mint, yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
2. Pat 3 of the lamb chops dry and season with salt and pepper.
3. Heat oil in a 10 heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then saute chops, turning once, 6 minutes for medium rare.
4. Transfer chops to a plate and keep warm, covered with foil.
5. Dry, season and saute remaining 3 chops in the same manner.
6. Serve topped with the yogurt-mint sauce.
