Lamb Shoulder Chops Recipe Tips
Ask your butcher for American Lamb, make sure that you’re buying the freshest tastiest lamb for this recipe. The ideal thickness of the chop for this recipe should be 1 inch. When searing the lamb shoulder chops, make sure you don’t over crowd your pan. A heavy duty cast iron or pot is ideal for this recipe, the size I used is 5.5 quart. Don’t wash the lamb drippings off the post once the lamb is seared, this will add more flavor to the rice and recipe. The type of rice that works best is long grain rice for this recipe. A slow cooker could be used for this recipe, however times will vary and searing the lamb won’t be an option. You’ll add all the lamb ingredients and cook until soft, then add in the rice, tomato juice and spice and cook until done. Make sure for the lamb to cool down slightly to room temperature before serving as it will be very hot once done. Enjoy!
