Ingredients

  • 4 pieces lamb loin chops
  • 4 tablespoons redcurrant jelly
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
  • 0.25 cups chicken stock

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Season the lamb chops with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 3

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Sear the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and chopped rosemary. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the redcurrant jelly, balsamic vinegar, and chicken stock. Cook the mixture for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until it forms a glossy sauce.

Step 7

Return the lamb chops to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 10-12 minutes for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve the lamb chops drizzled with the redcurrant jelly sauce and enjoy.
