Superb. I really like lamb, but this makes it even better. And that fresh mint REALLY tops it off well.
Lamb chops are treat enough on our table, but we especially enjoyed them with this mint-infused mushroom sauce. When I spotted O-bone lamb chops on sale and considered my bounty of fresh garden mint, I knew the two were destined to marry! This recipe was inspired by the Longhorn Steak House, though I reverted to packaged gravy mix in lieu of the brown sauce so the glaze would more aptly be called gravy. Served with rice pilaf and garden green beans. Lip-smacking delicious!
