Lamb Chops with Artichokes Recipe
Ingredients
- 12 loin lamb chops, cut 3/4" to 1" thick;
- 6 young artichokes
- water
- squeeze of lemon
- 2 oz. oil
- 2 oz. butter
- 1 clove garlic, crushed in the garlic- press
- 2 oz. chopped Prosciutto (include the fat)
- 1/2 cup. dry white wine
- 1/3 oz. chopped marjoram (or substitute parsley)
- Salt and freshly ground pepper.
Directions
- Break off the tough outer leaves of the artichokes and cut off the tips of the remaining leaves.
- Cut the artichokes into quarters (if they have developed chokes, remove them) parboil the quarters for 30 minutes in lightly salted water with a squeeze of lemon, drain, and reserve until needed.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over fairly high heat and brown the chops, a few at a time for about 4 minutes on each side. Do not crowd them in the pan; if desired, use 2 pans with slightly more oil.
- When all are browned, transfer them to a hot serving platter, season them with salt and pepper, and keep warm.
- Cook until the garlic is golden, add the wine, de-glaze the pan by scraping the sides and bottom with a wooden spoon, add the artichokes and marjoram (or parsley), reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring gently to make sure the artichokes get thoroughly hot.
- Garnish the platter with the artichokes and pour the liquid in the pan over the chops.
