• 4 small lamb chops
• 1 orange
• 200 ml fresh orange juice
• fresh thyme
• 4 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp butter
• olive oil

For the marinate:

• juice from one orange
• few orange slices
• 50 ml ouzo
• salt and black pepper

 

 

Season the chops with salt and coarsely ground pepper. Arrange in а deep plate, dividing layers by orange slices and toss with a little bit of ouzo. Squeeze the orange and leave on a site to rest.
In a large non stick skillet, heat one teaspoon olive oil over low to medium heat and add the quartered blood orange. Add the minced garlic and thyme and cook for few minutes. Add the orange juice, cover and cook over medium - low heat another 5 minutes. Uncover and spoon the content of the skillet into a bowl.

 

 

In the same skillet, heat up 2-3 tbsp of olive oil and the butter over medium heat. Add the lamb chops and cook for about 5 minutes on each side. Cover the skillet with a lid and leave to cook фор another 20 minutes. Remove the lid. Cook until liquid evaporates and chops become nicely golden brown.

Divide the lamb chops among two warm plates. Arrange some of the cooked orange quarters beside them.

Meanwhile, reheat the orange juice and leave to a boil for another 5 minutes over medium to high heat. Pour in a small bowl and serve immediately.

 

 

Enjoy,
