LAMB CHOPS WITH PISTACHIO SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Make the Pistachio Salsa Verde:
• Pulse shallots, garlic, parsley, mint, pistachios, lemon juice, capers, red pepper flakes, and salt in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Scrape into a medium bowl and stir in oil.
• Cook the lamb chops:
• Season lamb chops with salt and pepper; allow to come to room temperature.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Grill chops, working in batches if needed, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lamb registers 125°F for medium-rare, 2-3 minutes per side. Serve with Pistachio Salsa Verde.
• Do Ahead
• Pistachio Salsa Verde can be stored and chilled in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

GRILLED LAMB WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Stir the first 7 ingredients and 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a large bowl to blend. Whisk in 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Set the salsa verde aside. Place the lamb in a 15 by 10 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Rub the minced garlic, remaining 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes all over lamb. Pour 1/2 cup of salsa verde over the lamb, turning the lamb to coat evenly. Use immediately, or cover the dish and remaining salsa verde separately with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 1 day.
• Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray and prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill the lamb until a meat thermometer inserted into the thicker parts registers 130 degrees F for medium-rare, turning occasionally, about 40 minutes. Transfer the lamb to a work surface and let rest 15 minutes.
• Cut the lamb across grain into thin slices. Arrange the lamb slices on a platter. Serve the remaining salsa verde alongside.

LAMB CHOPS SCOTTADITA WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Salsa Verde, part 1: Use your fingers to split open the anchovies and remove the bones. Roughly chop the anchovies with the capers. Combine the anchovies, capers, grated garlic, lemon zest, and the salt in the mortar and pestle; grind them to a paste.
• Salsa Verde, part 2: Stirring constantly with the pestle, add the olive oil a few drops at a time to maintain a paste-like consistency. Thinly slice and add the parsley to the olive oil mixture. Continue to grind until the parsley is incorporated into the paste. Stir in lemon juice and salt to taste. Alternative method, with food processor: Combine the parsley, anchovies, capers, garlic, and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse to roughly chop the ingredients. Turn off the motor and scrape down the sides of the bowl. With the motor running, gradually add the olive oil, stopping after you've added half of the oil to scrape down the bowl again, and then slowly adding the rest. Add more olive oil as needed to achieve a loose paste. (Don't mix it any longer than necessary, as the blade will heat the garlic and give it a bitter flavor. Over-processing also incorporates too much air into the sauce, giving it an undesirable texture.) Taste for seasoning and add more salt or lemon juice if desired. Serve immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days. (After that, it will lose its green color and vibrant flavor.) Bring to room temperature before serving.
• Lamb Chops: Prepare a hot fire in a gas or charcoal grill, or preheat a grill pan or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the lamb chops on the grill to cook, 2-4 minutes per side for medium rare.
• Assemble: Char the fresh rosemary sprigs in the fire and place them on the lamb chops. Remove the lamb chops from the grill and rest them for 10 minutes before serving alongside plenty of Salsa Verde.
