Ingredients

• 8 pieces lamb chops
• 1 cup red wine
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 pieces garlic cloves
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix red wine, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary leaves, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the lamb chops in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels. Reserve the leftover marinade for later use.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, sear the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium, add the reserved marinade to the skillet, and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes. This will create a flavorful sauce while the lamb chops finish cooking to your desired doneness (internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare).

Step 6

Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet and stir into the sauce to add richness.

Step 7

Remove the lamb chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve the lamb chops hot, drizzled with the honey and wine sauce. Pair with roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
