Ingredients

LAMB T-BONE CHOPS, brined in red wine, honey, garlic, rosemary and pepper corns, 3 each

SALT & PEPPER BLEND, 1/2 tsp

OLIVE OIL, 2 tsp

 

AU GRATIN POTATOES, cut 5"x5"x1/2", made from 1" high (raw) precooked au gratin potatoes

 

APPLE BUTTER & ROSEMARY PAN JUS

 

SPICY KALE CHIPS, seasoned with espelette

 

Garlicky Greens:

OLIVE OIL 1 Tbsp.

SLICED GARLIC CLOVES 1 Tbsp.

KALE, ARUGULA, SPINACH, rough chopped 1 cup

OLIVE OIL LEMON MIX 1 Tbsp.

GRATED PARMESAN CHEESE 1/2 tsp.

 

Method

Evenly coat all sides of meat with S&P blend, and olive oil. Place lamb on grill and cook to temperature requested by the guest.

While the chops are cooking, place a portion of the au gratin potatoes on a sizzle pan and place in a 350  oven until hot and cheese is bubbly, approximately 3 - 4 minutes.

Use a large metal spatula to transfer the potatoes to the center of the plate approximately 9" surface area.

In saute pan heat oil over high heat. Add garlic and toast for 20 seconds. Add garlicky greens and toss until they just begin to wilt, approximately 30 seconds. Remove from heat and add oil lemon mix and toss.

Place drained garlicky greens in the center of the potatoes and sprinkle with grated parmesan.

Stand one lamb chop up on its bone side in the center of the greens and place remaining two chops flat, bone to bone on either side of the standing chop, with points facing east and west.

Nape pan jus over chops, potatoes and around plate.

Randomly garnish the perimeter of the potatoes with chips.
