Lamb Medallions With White Bean Puree Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

2 loin lamb chops - (8 oz ea), boned, fat and
tail removed, and tied
=== MARINADE ===
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
=== WHITE BEAN PUREE ===
Olive oil cooking spray, as needed
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp chopped fresh sage
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/8 tsp salt, (optional)
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
Fresh tarragon sprigs, for garnish
1 can cannellini beans - (15 oz), drained, rinsed,
and drained again
1 plum tomato - (4 oz), seeded, and
finely chopped

Recipe Instructions:

On a small plate, combine the vinegar, garlic, and mustard. Place the medallions on the plate, turning them to cover with the marinade. Let stand for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, lightly coat a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray; add the onions and cook, stirring, over medium heat until onions wilt, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook for 1 minute.

Place the beans in food processor or blender. Add the cooked onion, sage, and vinegar, along with salt (if using) and pepper. Process until smooth. Transfer to a covered container to take to the picnic site.

Light a grill or preheat the broiler. Grill lamb medallions about 7 minutes total time, turning once, for medium-rare.

Transfer from grill to a carving board. Let sit for 10 minutes, then remove the string and slice into thin strips. Pack slices in a covered container to take to the picnic site.

“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?”

~ Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772)
