Sep 23rd, 2008 by Alana
Here’s a fast & easy recipe and pairing…
Tuscan Lamb (knock off from bhg.com)
- 6-8 lamb rib chops (separated)
- 2-3 tbls olive oil for pan
- 4 cloves garlic (or more to taste)
- 1 drained can of Cannellini or white small beans
- 1 cup organic drained canned or fresh diced tomatoes
- 1 tbls balsamic vinegar
- A few pinches EACH dried rosemary, oregano & basil to taste (or use fresh)
- salt & pepper
- In large skillet, cook chops in olive oil over medium heat for about 8 minutes (depending on thickness). Add salt & pepper to chops to taste. Remove and keep warm.
- Add chopped garlic to the drippings, cook and stir for 1 minute.
- Add beans, tomatoes, spices and vinegar, simmer for 3 minutes.
- Spoon bean mixture onto individual plates and arrange chops on top.
Hint: To keep meat warm, stack on a plate, cover with foil and place a hand towel over it. This avoids accidently over-cooking meat in a warm oven.
