Ingredients
- 6 lamb chops (ends cleaned and room temp)
- Salt
- Olive oil
- Smoked charred memphis rub
- Butter
- 3-4 garlic cloves (crushed)
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp honey
- Water
- 2-3 potatoes (chopped)
- White pepper
- Thickened cream
- Chopped chives
- Salt flakes
Step 1: Prepare the Lamb Chops
Begin by trimming the fat from the lamb chops if desired, and clean the ends.
Allow the lamb chops to come to room temperature.
Season them with salt on both sides, then drizzle a little olive oil over the chops and rub it in.
Generously apply smoked charred Memphis rub on both sides for added flavor.
Step 2: Cook the Potatoes
Fill a pot with water and a pinch of salt, then bring it to a boil.
Chop 2-3 potatoes into even pieces and add them to the boiling water.
Cook the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 3: Prepare the Garlic Honey Glaze
In a pan, melt some butter over medium heat and add 3-4 crushed garlic cloves.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of soy sauce and 3 tablespoons of honey, mixing well.
Allow the sauce to simmer until it thickens slightly, then turn off the heat and set it aside.
Step 4: Cook the Lamb Chops
In another pan, heat olive oil and place the lamb chops fat side down.
Cook the lamb chops for a few minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked to your liking.
Once done, remove them from the pan and let them rest meanwhile.
Step 5: Make the Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Once the potatoes are tender, drain them well and return them to the pot.
Mash the potatoes thoroughly, then add salt and white pepper to taste.
Incorporate butter and thickened cream, mixing until the mash is smooth and creamy.
Step 6: Assemble and Serve
Plate the creamy mashed potatoes, creating a small indentation in the center.
Arrange the cooked lamb chops on top of the mashed potatoes.
Drizzle the garlic honey glaze over the lamb chops and into the indentation of the potatoes.
Garnish with chopped chives and a sprinkle of salt flakes for that final touch.
Serve and enjoy your glazed lamb chops with creamy potato mash!
