Ingredients

8 grass-fed lamb chops, ½ inch thick
4 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
4 Tbsp fresh rosemary leaves
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp kosher or sea salt
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
⅔ cup Chukar® Cherry Chipotle Sauce
5 long organic carrots, cut lengthwise into slices that are ¼ inch thick by 2 inches long
½ a sweet onion, cut into ¼ inch thick slices
½ cup warmed Chukar® Cherry Pepper Jelly
Garnish: fresh mint sprig

Directions

Place Chukar® Cherry Chipotle Sauce in saucepan and warm on low.
Prepare sliced vegetables: Brush veggies with olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper.
Turn the oven to broil. If using grill or smoker turn to high—425°F. Brush both sides of lamb with olive oil, combine seasonings and press onto the chops. Place vegetables on outside edges of pan and place chops in the center of pan.
If using oven, cook chops for 5-6 minutes per side. If using grill or smoker, place on grill and cook until temperature reads 145°F (medium rare). Note: watch veggies throughout cooking time and remove from oven if they begin to burn.
Transfer lamb to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes. Brush tops with warmed Chukar® Cherry Chipotle Sauce. Serve on individual plates with vegetables and a dollop of warmed Chukar® Cherry Pepper Jelly alongside.
