Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
2 large cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
8 rib lamb chops, bones scraped of fat
2 medium fennel bulbs, tops removed and finely chopped, bulbs very finely shaved
1 cup white wine
2 cups chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned
2 tablespoons pitted and chopped Nyons olives
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Combine the olive oil, garlic and pepper in a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the lamb chops. Place the lamb chops in the dish and coat well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
Wipe the oil off the lamb chops. Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the chops and sear until medium rare, about 30 seconds per side. Remove the chops from the skillet and wrap in foil to keep warm.
Reduce the heat to very low. Add the shaved fennel, cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the fennel is soft, about 20 minutes. Remove the fennel from the skillet with a slotted spatula and divide among 4 warmed plates.
Increase the heat and add the white wine and chicken broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 15 minutes. Stir in the olives and season with salt and pepper to taste. Place 2 lamb chops over the fennel on each plate, spoon the sauce over the top, sprinkle with the fennel tops and serve immediately.

Categories dinner, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

12 lamb rib chops
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced crosswise
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons lemon juice
15 large black olives (or 20 small), pitted and sliced
1 teaspoon Maldon salt or 1/2 teaspoon table salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

Spread chops between two layers of plastic wrap. Using rolling pin or kitchen mallet, pound them until they are all an even thickness. Place the chops in a single layer in a large glass dish.
In small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, chili flakes, oregano, zest, juice and olives. Pour mixture over chops. Season to taste with salt. Turn chops in the marinade to coat both sides. Cover with plastic wrap. Marinate for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature.
Place large skillet over high heat, and add vegetable oil. Remove chops from marinade, scraping off excess, and place them in skillet; reserve marinade. Sear until browned, about 2 minutes a side. Reduce heat to medium, and add reserved marinade and 2 tablespoons water. Simmer until cooked to taste, about 5 minutes for rare chops.
To serve, transfer chops to a platter. Top with pan juices and serve immediately.
