Lavender Lamb Chops - Recipe

Although lavender is usually valued for its aromatic contribution to sachets and pot-pourri, it adds, when used sparingly, an interesting undertone to more familiar herbs such as rosemary and thyme. Try using the smaller amount at first.

Lavender Lamb Chops Recipe
Directions
  • Trim chops of excess fat. Chop herbs very finely and mix together. Pat the herb mixture onto the chops, distributing herbs as evenly as possible. Wrap the chops snugly in plastic wrap and refrigerate  for 1 hour or longer  (up to 24 hours).
  • When ready to cook, remove wrap, salt chops lightly and bring to room temperature. Preheat grill, if grilling, or heat a heavy skillet, if pan broiling.
  • Cook  3 - 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness, for medium rare.
  • Serve immediately, preferably on warmed plates.
