Ingredients for Mutton Chops
- 750g mutton chops
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 11 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1/3 tsp rosemary, chopped
- 2-3 fresh rosemary sprigs
- 2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- 60ml Bourbon whiskey
- Fresh parsley, to garnish
Ingredients for Glaze
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup water
Instructions
- Remove your mutton chops out of the packaging, pat ’em dry and bring to room temperature.
- In a small mixing bowl, add olive oil, garlic cloves, rosemary, thyme, salt & pepper and mix well. Then add the chops to this marinade and rub the paste on both sides. Place it in the fridge for at least 1-2 hours.
- Heat your griddle or pan until it sizzles when you add a drop of oil. Then, lower the heat to medium & sear the chops for 10 minutes on each side. Note: When you flip the chops to the other side, add a splash of Bourbon into the pan. Once cooked just the way you like, leave to rest in a warm place for 7-8 minutes.
- In the meanwhile, to make the glaze: Add half cup water into the same pan. Once the water has reduced, turn the flame off and finish by adding a large knob of butter. Drizzle this glaze over the garlicky chops and garnish with some fresh parsley.
Gouda Tip: Serve ’em piping hot with a side of buttery mashed potatoes & crispy bacon bits.
