Notes
How to choose lamb chops
Today, we have lamb rib chops that have a nice little handle and a nugget of meat at the end. Loin lamb chops (like these broiled lamb chops with mint sauce) look like mini T-bone steaks. They're also good. Shoulder chops are a bit chewier and fattier and they would need a longer cooking method.
Choose meat that is moist, firm and pink with good marbling; and reddish bones.
What to serve with your lamb chops
Serve with roasted sweet potatoes and your favorite green vegetable or you might like delicious mashed cauliflower.
