Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon lime zest
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/4 cup mint, minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 australian lamb chops
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
3 cups shiraz wine

Steps:

Combine olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, mint, pepper, and salt in a shallow dish large enough to place the lamb chops in one layer. Coat both side of the chops in the marinade and leave for 2 hours at room temperature, or up to 24 hours refrigerated.
For the sauce, melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir in wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until mixture thickens and reduces to approximately 1 cup. The glaze should be the consistency of syrup.
Grill the chops for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until desired doneness.
To serve, allow 2 chops per person, with Shiraz reduction.
