Parmesan-Crusted Lamb Chops with Mint Aioli Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons Safeway SELECT Verdi White Wine Vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Safeway SELECT Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3/4 cup fine dried bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons Safeway SELECT Verdi Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
  • 8 lamb rib chops (each about 3/4 in. thick)
  • 2 tablespoons melted Lucerne Sweet Cream Butter
  • Mint Aioli ( see recipe )
  • Salt
  1. In a shallow bowl, mix together vinegar, mustard, garlic, and pepper. In another bowl, stir together bread crumbs, cheese, and mint.
  2. Trim excess fat from lamb and discard. Rinse chops and pat dry. One at a time, turn chops in vinegar mixture to coat well; lift out and press firmly in bread crumb mixture, turning to coat all sides. Place chops slightly apart in a lightly oiled 10- by 15-inch pan; drizzle evenly with butter.
  3. Bake in a 500 degrees F oven until coating is browned and meat is medium-rare (pink) in center of thickest part (cut to test), 10 to 14 minutes. Turn once after 5 minutes. Serve with Mint Aioli and season to taste with salt.
