Ingredients

1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
4 lamb loin chops (4 ounces each)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup beef broth

Directions

Combine the rosemary, salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; rub over lamb chops.

Remove and keep warm.
Add garlic to the pan; cook for 1 minute. Stir in the broth, preserves, vinegar and remaining pepper; cook for 2-4 minutes or until thickened. Return chops to the pan; turn to coat. Sprinkle with additional dried rosemary if desired. Yield: 2 servings.

Amazing!!

Reviewed on Jun. 28, 2011 by BDenning

We loved this dinner. I changed two things to make it better. We used pork instead of lamb and put the meat back on for about 10 to 15 mor min. in the juices till it was very dark in color. The flavor was so light we wanted more. I would make this again.
