Marinated Lamb Chops with Ginger

Ingredients

1/2 cup orange juice (no sugar added)

1 tbsp each Dijon-style mustard, teriyaki sauce, and freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 tsp minced pared gingerroot

2 lamb loin chops (5 ounces each)

1 tsp cornstarch


Method

  • In a shallow bowl (not aluminum *) large enough to hold lamb in a single layer combine orange juice, mustard, teriyaki sauce, lemon juice, and gingerroot and mix well; add lamb and turn to coat.

  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  • Arrange lamb chops on rack in broiling pan, reserving marinade, and broil, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until done to taste.

  • While lamb chops are broiling prepare sauce.

  • In small saucepan combine reserved marinade and cornstarch and stir to dissolve cornstarch; cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil.

  • Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring frequently, until sauce is thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.

  • Serve lamb chops topped with sauce.

  • MAKES 2 SERVINGS.

* It's best to marinate in glass or stainless-steel containers; ingredients such as orange juice and lemon juice may react with aluminum, causing color and flavor changes in food.

 

Notes:

  • If you are never tried fresh ginger, you are in for a wonderful surprise.

  • It is much better tasting than the dried, powdered ginger you keep on your spice shelf.

  • Store unpeeled fresh ginger in a sealed plastic bag in your refrigerator vegetable crisper.
