Coriander Crusted Lamb Chops Recipes

GARLIC AND HERB CRUSTED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place the garlic, bread crumbs, and rosemary in a food processor and pulse for a few seconds to chop, then add enough olive oil until a paste is formed. Season with salt and pepper. Press paste firmly onto surface of lamb chops. Heat grapeseed oil over medium heat in a saute pan and brown each side of the chops, leaving undisturbed for the first 2 minutes to allow the crust to integrate into the meat. Place on a baking sheet and finish in the oven, for approximately 6 to 8 additional minutes.

CORIANDER-AND-CHILE-RUBBED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Divide lemon juice and garlic between 2 sealable plastic bags and put 6 tied chops in each bag, shaking to distribute marinade. Marinate 20 minutes. Grind coriander and red pepper flakes with a mortar and pestle or in an electric coffee/spice grinder, then pour onto a plate. Pat chops dry and season well with salt. Dip both sides of each chop into spice mixture to coat.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown chops, 4 at a time, until browned on all sides (add more oil to skillet for each batch). Transfer chops to a large shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pan as browned.
• When all chops are browned, roast in middle of oven 10 minutes for medium-rare. Remove string before serving.

CORIANDER AND CUMIN RUBBED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix the salt, cumin, coriander, garlic, and 1 tablespoon olive oil to form a paste. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, and rub with the paste.
• Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the pork chops about 5 minutes on each side, to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

CORIANDER-CRUSTED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Trim fat from chops and place them on a flat plate.
• Combine all the other ingredients in a small bowl, then rub the mixture over the chops. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator about 30 minutes.
• Heat a lightly oiled grill pan over high heat until almost smoking, then add the chops and sear for about 2 minutes, flip the chops over and cook for another 3 minutes for the medium rare or 3 1/2 minutes for medium.
• Allow the chops to rest 5 minutes before serving.

CORIANDER CRUMBLED LAMB CUTLETS

Steps:

• Add the flour to a shallow dish. In a separate shallow dish, lightly beat the milk and eggs. In a third dish, toss together the bread crumbs, parsley, cilantro, lemon zest, and cumin, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Dip the lamb cutlets into the flour, then in the beaten egg and finally into the breadcrumbs. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Panfry the cutlets in batches, until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the lamb cutlets to a warm platter and serve with the herbed yoghurt.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the yoghurt, lemon zest, parsley, and cilantro. Serve the yoghurt with the lamb cutlets.

CORIANDER LAMB CHOPS

• With a mortar and pestle or in an electric coffee/spice grinder grind coriander seeds. Mince garlic and mash to paste with salt. In a bowl stir together coriander, garlic paste, and oil and rub onto chops.
• Arrange chops on rack of a broiler pan and broil 3 inches from heat 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare.

CORIANDER CRUSTED LAMB WITH SPICED ORANGE-HOISIN SAUCE

Steps:

• Marinate the lamb with 50ml of the hoisin for an hour.
• To cook the lamb, sear the meat on a hot pan and roast in a preheated oven at 180 Degrees C for 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and spread 50ml of the hoisin on the lamb and crust with the coriander leaves and seeds.
• Set aside the lamb to rest.
• For the sauce, mix all the ingredients together in a mixing bowl and whisk until the sauce is well mixed. Heat before serving.
• Slice your chops when ready to serve, and top with sauce to taste.

LAMB CHOPS WITH CORIANDER PESTO

Steps:

• Rub a little oil onto each side of the lamb, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Grill, barbecue or fry over medium-high heat for 5 mins, then turn over and cook 5 mins more for medium; 7 mins more for well done.
• While the meat is cooking, whizz together the rest of the ingredients with the remaining oil in a blender or with a mortar and pestle, to a rough paste. Serve the chops with the pesto drizzled over.
