Lamb Chops with Balsamic Reduction

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Meat - Steaks and Chops

I used this recipe the first time I cooked lamb and it was easy. I ended up forgetting the butter in the sauce and putting it on top of the lamb instead, but it was just as delicious.

"Made Feb/6/2010 Lamb Were awesome!!!!! So funny it was my first time making it! It came out DELICIOUS!! But Didn't have all it needed ( Snow Storm ). So instead of rosemary i pressed some fresh Cilantro And Chooped Garlic, And instead of Shallots, red onion!." - Sarakitchen29

    I love this recipe and I make it every time I decide to have lamb chops for dinner. It pairs excellent with couscous. :)

    I used this with pork chops. Added some baby bella mushrooms. I think I would add the brown sugar next time as someone suggested. This is a good recipe as is or you can embellish as you see fit.
