ingredients

4 lbs lamb chops (1 pound each)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
chopped parsley (for garnish)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons onions, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic clove, minced
1 ¹⁄₄ lbs tomatoes, cored, peeled and cu into 1 inch dice (about 2 to 3 cups)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, chopped
¹⁄₃ cup black olives, drained (try to use kalamata)
¹⁄₂ cup green olives, pitted and drained

directions

Season lamb chops with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat; brown chops on all sides, including browning the fat on the edges, until well browned, about 10 minutes each side. Continue cooking another 15 to 18 minutes, turning once until chops are done. This will produce a medium rare chop. Five minutes before they are done sprinkle with 1 teaspoon dried rosemary. For well done meat cook 15 minutes longer.
Meanwhile heat olive oil in another skillet. Add onion and garlic. Cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon chopped dried rosemary. Cook 5 to 10 minutes. The tomatoes should not become mushy. Add olives and heat through.
To serve, arrange the tomato mixture on the bottom of a serving dish. Arrange lamb chops over top and sprinkle with parsley.

We may live without poetry, music and art;   We may live without conscience and live without heart; We may live without friends; we may live without books, But civilized man cannot live without cooks.   He may live without books -- what is knowledge but grieving? He may live without hope-- what is hope but deceiving? He may live without love -- what is passion but pining? But where is the man that can live without dining? -- Owen Meredith     I'm an all-American original, having lived in Hawaii, New York, Texas, South Carolina, and Miami.  I also served 7 years in the US Army.  My husband is from Bogota, Colombia and has also lived in the former Soviet Union.  But now we are both in NY.   Tomasi enjoyes a bath! <a href=http://s845.photobucket.com/albums/ab15/luseaann/?action=view&current=tomas.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i845.photobucket.com/albums/ab15/luseaann/tomas.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a>   Some of my recipes: <object width=480 height=360 data=http://w845.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w845.photobucket.com/albums/ab15/luseaann/12cdcf0a.pbw type=application/x-shockwave-flash> <param name=data value=http://w845.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w845.photobucket.com/albums/ab15/luseaann/12cdcf0a.pbw /> <param name=src value=http://w845.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w845.photobucket.com/albums/ab15/luseaann/12cdcf0a.pbw /> <param name=wmode value=transparent /> </object> <a href=http://photobucket.com/slideshows target=_blank><img src=http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn.gif alt=/ /></a><a href=http://s845.photobucket.com/albums/ab15/luseaann/?action=view?t=12cdcf0a.pbw target=_blank><img src=http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn_viewallimages.gif alt=/ /></a>     I also have the genealogy bug!  I've been tracing my roots for at least 10 years.  One branch came to America just after the Mayflower in the early 1600s.  Others came in the early 1700s, late 1890s.  So, my American roots run pretty deep and I am deeply patriotic.  Just wish someone had thought to same me some land!
