Lamb Chops & Mint Apple Gastric
by Wine Country Inn
Lamb Chops Ingredients: (8 servings/2 chops for each person)
• 16 Colorado lamb chops
• salt & pepper
• 1 tablespoon of canola oil
Lamb Chop Directions:
Lay out all chops on a cookie sheet or tray and rub salt and pepper into each
chop on both sides. Heat heavy skillet that has been lightly coated with canola
oil to prevent sticking. Sear chops on each side to develop color and texture.
Remove to baking tray. Once all chops are seared, finish off in 375º F oven for
10 minutes. Arrange artistically on individual plates with wild rice or other side
dishes and garnish with sprigs of fresh herbs. Drizzle plate with Mint Apple
Gastric. Serve piping hot immediately.
Mint Apple Gastric Ingredients: (8 servings)
• 8 ounces apple mint jelly
• 1 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 ounce red wine vinegar
• 1 ounce apple cider
Mint Apple Gastric Directions:
Combine all the ingredients in medium size sauce pan. Heat to a boil and reduce
by one half. Taste for adjustments. Serve immediately (or can be reserved for
up to two days ahead and stored in an air tight jar or container for service.) To
cool, pour the sauce into a shallow pan until temperatue has dropped to 70º in
the first 2 hours, and 40º in the next 2 hours. Then store in container. Drizzle
over hot Lamb Chops right before serving.
