Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 lamb chops
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, parsley, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture evenly onto both sides of the lamb chops.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the lamb chops for 2 minutes per side.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 6–8 minutes for medium-rare or adjust cooking time to your preference.
  5. Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until tender (about 15 minutes). Drain and mash with butter, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  6. Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes or until tender.
  7. In the skillet used for the lamb, add red wine and beef broth. Simmer until reduced by half. Stir in butter and, if needed, cornstarch dissolved in a little water for thickening. Drizzle over lamb chops before serving.
  8. Serve the lamb chops over a bed of mashed potatoes with asparagus on the side. Drizzle sauce generously over the lamb and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for maximum flavor.
  • Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of the lamb chops.
  • For extra creamy mashed potatoes, use a potato ricer.
