Lamb Chops With Olive Paste Recipe
Ingredients
| 8 thick lamb chops | ||
| Olive oil for frying | ||
| 1 cup Olive Paste | ||
| Dried thyme | 1/4 Teaspoon (Olive paste:) | |
| Bay leaf | 1 , crushed (Olive paste:) | |
| Dijon Mustard | 2 Teaspoon (Olive paste:) | |
| Garlic | 1 Clove (5gm), crushed (Olive paste:) | |
Directions
Stir all the ingredients for the olive paste together.
Pan-fry the chops in a bit of olive oil until they are brown on both sides.
Use very high heat and do not overcook them.
They should not be anywhere near done.
A couple of minutes on each side should do.
Spread a bit of the olive paste on one side of each chop and place it on a broiling rack.
Place in a 500° oven (yes, 500°) for about 5 minutes, or until the center of the chop is tender but still pink.
Remove to a serving platter.
Enjoy.
Try this with Pasta with Fresh Asparagus and green salad with French bread.
