Here is how to make this recipe with purpose-fueled food that’s better for the prosperity of our planet and people.


Ingredients

6-8 Grass-fed, bone-in, lamb rib chops

¾ tbsp. fresh rosemary 

½ tbsp. fresh thyme

¼ tbsp. fresh basil

1 tbsp. olive oil

¼ cup shallots, minced

1 tbsp. garlic, minced

⅓ cup aged balsamic vinegar

¾ cup chicken broth

1 tbsp. butter

Salt and pepper to taste


Directions

In a small bowl, mix rosemary, thyme, and basil. Prep the lamb by generously salting all sides. Then, coat both sides in the herb mix. Cover for 15 minutes and set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat the skillet with olive oil. Place lamb in the hot skillet, and cook for about 3 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature is 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Remove from the pan and place on a platter. Cover with foil to keep warm.  

In the same pan you cooked the lamb in, fry the shallots for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.

Add balsamic vinegar and bring to a boil. Be sure to scrape pan drippings into the sauce with a wooden spoon. 

Stir in chicken broth. Continue to boil until the sauce reduces by half for about 5 minutes.

Remove sauce from heat. Stir in butter until melted. 

Add sauce to lamb and serve. You can thank us later!
