Peppered Lamb Chops
"This is a very easy yet yummy lamb chop recipe, I used french trimmed lamb chops but any cut of chop would work just as well with this recipe. I served mine over creamy polenta topped with mushrooms and sprinkled with a few fresh chopped chives. I just saw kiwidutch's review PLEASE NOTE: I used a mild creamy french mustard not dijon that would be way too overpowering if you added 2 Tablespoons. Thanks Kiwidutch for pointing that out I should have made it more clear sorry if you almost blew your head off."

- Ready In:
- 35mins
- Ingredients:
- 8
- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 16 french trimmed lamb chops (Or if using a larger chop like a loin 1 chop per person, medium sized 2 per person.)
- 2 tablespoons French mustard, mild creamy
- 1 3⁄4 tablespoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons brandy
- 1⁄2 cup milk
- 2 1⁄2 - 3 tablespoons cream
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons chopped chives
directions
- Season chops with black pepper both sides about 3/4 Tablespoon (If you don't use quite 3/4 tablespoon, reserve whatever is left over for the sauce.) reserve remaining tablespoon for the sauce.
- Cook chops either under the grill, BBQ or pan fry until desired doneness.
- For The Sauce.
- In a pan add milk, mustard, brandy, Worcestershire sauce and remaining pepper, bring to boil and then reduce to a simmer for a couple of minutes, add cream, heat through and serve over chops.
- Note: I find the sauce thickens up enough this way, I have had a couple of times where I found it a little to0 runny, if this is the case just use a little cornflour to thicken.
- Serve sauce over chops and sprinkle with chopped chives.

Thanks for a Friday night treat Flying Chef - took the advice of kiwidutch and made sure we didn't go too much on the mustard using a milder French mustard. But used pre ground fine pepper instead of freshly ground and only using maybe two teaspoons - perhaps that's why it cleared my sinuses! Thanks again for the inspiration! -
Used lamb loin chops (cooked in the frypan) and poured over the sauce and garnished with spring onion and the DM (thought was a bit peppery but loved it) as did the DS and myself. Used freshly ground mixed peppercorns and have to admit was a bit overhanded in peppering the chops. Served with oven baked sweet potatoe for the DM and I and regular potatoe for the DS with steamed brocolli, cauliflower, carrot, and spinach. Thank you The Flying Chef, would like to try this with a beef steak done on the b-b-q. Made for Ausie Swap #22 - November 2008. -
We liked these.... the brandy is an excellent touch, but if you have a very strong specialty Dijon mustard as I did in my cupboard, then please be warned that it can be somewhat overpowering and 1 tablespoon would be more than sufficiant. That said, the chops were great and with some small revision on the mustard I would be most happy to make these again. please see my rating system: 4 stars for a lovely recipe.. Thanks!
