These simple lamb chops with balsamic glaze get ready in less than 20 minutes. A perfect dish to make when you want something quick and easy but still elegant and holiday-worthy. Serve them over mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
Prep the chops - Cut excess fat around the edges. Pat dry the lamb chops on both sides. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
8 large Lamb Chops, ½ tsp Kosher salt, ½ tsp Black pepper powder
Sear the chops - In a cast-iron skillet on low heat, olive oil, garlic cloves, and thyme (and rosemary) for 30 secs. Turn to medium-high heat and add the lamb chops. Cook for 2 minutes on the first side. Turn the chops over and cook for 2 minutes on the second side. Remove the chops from the skillet, set aside, and keep warm.
Make the sauce - To the same skillet, add the brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, and chicken stock. Cook for only a minute.
¼ cup Balsamic vinegar, ¼ cup Brown sugar, ¼ cup Stock or water, 2 tbsp Butter, ¼ tsp Kosher salt, ¼ tsp Black pepper powder
Soak chops in sauce - Return the lamb chops to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, then remove them and set aside.
Finish the sauce - Add butter and let thicken on medium heat for two minutes until thick. Remove from the heat and pour into a sauceboat.
Serve - I like to serve these lamb chops over mashed potatoes and more balsamic sauce.
