Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 6 lamb chops make sure it’s a good chop
  • seasoned with ¼ tsp each: garlic, onion and pepper powder
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil for the marinade
  • 2 tbsp garlic oil for cooking see below
  • non-stick / cast iron pan

For the crispy garlic chips & oil

  • about 12 garlic cloves (finely sliced) finely sliced
  • ½ cup sunflower oil

For the sauce

  • ½ cup chicken stock mixed with 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp crispy garlic chips
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • ½ tbsp Hoisin sauce

For garnish

  • crispy garlic chips
  • spring onions (finely sliced) finely sliced

For serving

  • white rice
  • steamed pak choi

Instructions

  • Marinate your lamb chops and set these aside.NOTE: always allow your meat to come at room temperature (about 30 minutes) if it comes out of the fridge.
  • Prepare your garlic oil & chips by frying them on medium heat until they are golden brown (about 15 minutes). Keep stirring. Remove once brown and place the chips on some kitchen towel paper to remove excess oil and to keep them crispy. You’ll need this garlic oil & chips for cooking the chops and making your sauce.
  • Then place 2 tbsp of garlic oil in a pan and cook the chops on medium heat (about 5 minutes each side or to your preference). Remove from pan, cover with cling film and let them rest.
  • In the meantime prepare your sauce by adding the ingredients to a bowl and mixing it well. Then add the mixture to a pan (same pan where you cooked your chops in) and let it thicken on medium heat. 
  • When the sauce is ready drizzle it over the chops. Serve with rice (fried, steamed, sticky) and some Steamed Pak Choi w/ Asian Spices.TIP:- You can cook any other (vegan) meat and serve it with the sauce. It goes well with red meat, but also chicken!If you make my recipes, please tag me in them and use #thespicedchickpearecipes. I'd love to see what you've made.
