Asian Lamb Chops

October 17, 2011 by TammyL.

What you’ll need

2 Lamb racks (1 ½ lb each)
Large bowl & sauté pan
Roasting Rack or baking sheet
Parchment paper
Olive oil
Hoisin sauce
Sugar
Honey
Chili garlic sauce
Rice vinegar
Garlic
Ginger
Low-sodium soy sauce
Sesame oil

Directions

1 – Preheat oven to 450

2 - Take lamb racks and french racks if necessary. Then cut whole racks into 2 rib
chops. You should get 4 – 2 rib chops from each rack.

3- Make the dipping sauce
Combine all in a large mixing bowl and set aside
2/3 cup Hoisin sauce
½ cup Sugar
½ cup Honey
½ cup chili garlic sauce
¼ cup rice vinegar
2-4 TS minced garlic (depending on how much you like garlic)
2 TS minced ginger
2 TS soy
2 TS Sesame oil

4 – Sear lamb pieces in large sauté pan until brown (1-2 minutes per side)

5 – Dip the seared chops into sauce making sure they are completely covered
and arrange on the roasting rack or baking sheet. I always cover the pan with
parchment paper to make cleanup easier.

6 – Roast in oven for 15-20min for medium rare (125-130 degrees)

7 – While chops are in oven bring remaining dipping sauce to a boil, then simmer
for 5 minutes. This can be served in small bowls for individual dipping.

8 – Once chops are done. Tent with foil and let rest for 5 minutes before you serve.
