Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 shoulder lamb chops, 1/2-inch thick
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 onion, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1/4 lb mushroom, sliced
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 cup dry red wine (a Merlot is nice)
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1 teaspoon cornstarch, dissolved in
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced

Steps:

  • In a skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sauté the chops, seasoned with salt and pepper, flattening them occasionally with a metal spatula, for 4 minutes on each side for medium meat.
  • Transfer the chops with a slotted spatula to a small platter and keep them warm, covered loosely with foil.
  • Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat and in the remaining fat cook the garlic over moderate heat, stirring, until it is pale golden.
  • Add the onion and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute.
  • Add the mushrooms and the soy sauce and cook the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, until the liquid the mushrooms give off is evaporated.
  • Add the vinegar and boil the mixture until the liquid is evaporated.
  • Add the wine and the thyme and boil the mixture until almost all the liquid is evaporated.
  • Stir the cornstarch mixture, add it to the skillet, and bring the sauce to a boil, stirring.
  • Season the sauce with salt and pepper, spoon it over the chops, and sprinkle the chops with the parsley.
