Lamb Chops With Vegetable Gravy Food

LAMB CHOPS AND VEGETABLES IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place 1 piece of heavy duty aluminum foil vertically on a work surface and 1 large piece aluminum foil horizontally on top, large enough to cover 1 lamb chop and vegetables..
• Place 1 lamb chop in the middle of the aluminum foil and rub with 1/2 tablespoon garlic, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Repeat with remaining chops.
• Stack zucchini, carrots, mushrooms, and onion on top of each lamb chop. Place 1 tablespoon of butter on top and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Top each with 1 square of feta cheese. Tightly seal each package by wrapping the first piece of foil around the meat and vegetables, followed by the second.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lamb is cooked but still pink in the center. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Serve each person their own individual parcel.

SLOW COOKER LAMB CHOPS

• Combine red wine and onion in a slow cooker.
• Whisk honey, mustard, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, rosemary, basil, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl until well blended. Add tapioca starch and whisk until well combined. Let sit until mixture is thickened, at least 5 minutes.
• Dip lamb chops in the mustard mixture and massage until fully coated.
• Place chops in a single layer over the red wine and onion mixture in the slow cooker. Pour remaining mustard mixture on top.
• Cover slow cooker and cook on Low until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop reads at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C), about 4 1/2 hours.

LAMB CHOPS WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 7/425°F/220°C.
• Pat dry the lamb chops and place them onto an oiled tray.
• Season the lamb with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle half of the chopped herbs and give it all a good toss.
• Pop the tray on the middle shelf of the oven for about 10-15 minutes, till you prepare the vegetables.
• To prepare the vegetables - peel and chop the carrots and parsnips in half lengthways.
• Peel and chop the potatoes in half lengthways and then cut each half into 4 wedges.
• With the onions, peel the skin off but do not slice them. Make cuts not all the way down to the roots but about 3/4 way - make cuts into eighths so what you have are onions slightly opened up like water lilies.
• Leave the garlic cloves whole with their skin on.
• Put all the chopped vegetables, onions and garlic cloves in a bowl.
• Add in the rest of the chopped herbs, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle in the oil and toss them well.
• Remove the chops from the oven, arrange the vegetables all around the meat and return the tray to high shelf of the oven and cook for a further 35 minutes or until both the meat and vegetables are tender.
• Remove them from the oven and cover the tray with foil to allow the meat to rest for about 20 minutes.
• Transfer the chops and vegetables onto a serving plate.
• Scrape and pour the remaining juices from the tray into a saucepan.
• Pour in the stock and let it simmer and bubble over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
• Pour the gravy into a jug and serve along with the lamb chops and vegetables.

OVEN-BROILED LAMB CHOPS WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• Mix wine, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, cilantro, and ginger together in a zip-top freezer bag; add lamb chops. Seal and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to high.
• Remove lamb chops from the marinade and shake off excess; transfer chops to a wire rack set in a shallow pan.
• Strain the marinade and save the liquid only. Heat the liquid in a small saucepan to the point of boiling. Stir in flour until a gravy-like consistency is reached. More or less flour can be used to create the desired thickness.
• Broil the lamb chops until medium-rare, 4 1/4 minutes per side (4 1/2 minutes for medium). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium doneness. Pour a little of the gravy over the chops and serve.

ROSEMARY BALSAMIC LAMB WITH VEGETABLE MASH

Steps:

• Put the celeriac, swede and potato in a large steamer, then steam for 25 mins until softened.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the onions for 10 mins until softened and golden. Push to the side of the pan, then add the lamb and rosemary and stir-fry over the heat until browned, but still a little pink in the middle - try not to overcook it as it will become tough and will need a longer cook to become tender again. Add the bouillon and balsamic vinegar with 200ml boiling water. Stir to make a sauce.
• Mash the steamed veg and spoon half into the centre of two plates. Top with half the lamb and gravy, scatter with the parsley and serve with the spinach and peas. Chill the remaining lamb and veg to reheat and serve on another evening.

LAMB & SHALLOT GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a large saucepan over a medium-high heat and fry the shallots, carrot and celery for 7-10 mins, or until deep golden brown. Tip in the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 min. Pour in the wine and stir to combine everything, then simmer on a low heat for a few minutes, or until the wine has reduced by half. Add the rosemary and bay leaf, then gradually stir in the lamb stock. Simmer for 30 mins, uncovered.
• Strain the gravy through a fine sieve into a clean saucepan. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and simmer on a low heat until thick and glossy, about 15-20 mins. Will keep frozen for three months.
