Lamb Chops With Orange Sauce Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

1/2 cup unsweetened orange juice
1 tbsp orange rind
1/2 tsp dried thyme
8 lean lamb chops, about 1/2 inch thick
1 tbsp low calorie margarine
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine

Recipe Instructions:

In a shallow baking dish, combine the orange juice, orange rind, thyme and pepper to taste; mix well. Trim all excess fat from lamb chops and place in a baking dish. Spoon orange juice mixture over chops; cover and refrigerate 3-4 hours, occasionally turning chops. Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray; place over medium high heat until hot. Remove the chops from the marinade, reserving marinade; arrange in the skillet. Brown chops on both sides, remove from skillet and drain. Reduce heat to medium and melt margarine. Add mushrooms and saut‚ until just tender. Stir in reserved marinade and wine and bring to a boil. Return lamb chops to skillet; cover, reduce heat and simmer 10-12 minutes or until sauce is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Transfer lamb chops to platter, spoon orange sauce on top and serve.

"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’."

~ John Thorne, American food writer
