From keni 14 years ago
- 1 hour to make
- Serves 4
I've said before, I am not a lamb expert, but we enjoy it, so I keep trying to create some new ways of serving it. These are the best, yet! The chops can be grilled, broiled or done in a smoking hot cast iron pan on the stove top. Read more Don't over cook lamb. I suggest cooking to about 140-145 to get a nice rare treat! See less
