Lamb chop recipes
Lamb chops are a midweek MVP. If you haven’t cooked them for ages, or think of chops as solely a meat, two veg and gravy kind of dish, you’re in for a treat. Our lamb chop recipes showcase this quick, juicy cut’s versatility.
Pair lamb chops with flavours from around the globe. Try Rick Stein’s crispy Icelandic lamb chops, French bistro-style lamb on a bed of lentils, spicy Moroccan chops – or team them with a vibrant orange Indian dal.
Lamb chops and smaller cutlets can be cooked in a variety of easy ways. Try them breaded, griddled, pan-fried or shove them in the oven for an effortless one-tray roast. Lamb chops go with almost any side dish. Serve juicy, tender lamb with potatoes, jewelled couscous, pillowy flatbreads or creamy grains. You’ll find plenty of ideas below.
Put away the gravy granules… It’s time to look at lamb chops in a whole new light!
