Las Pedroñeras, in the Castilla–La Mancha region, is considered the garlic capital of Spain. These juicy, meaty lamb chops sizzled in extra-virgin olive oil with plenty of garlic cloves are Janet Mendel's homage to the village. More Amazing Lamb Recipes
How to Make It
Season the lamb with salt and pepper and sprinkle lightly with thyme. In a very large skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the lamb chops and garlic and cook over moderately high heat until the chops are browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Turn the chops and garlic and cook until the chops are browned, about 2 minutes longer for medium meat. Transfer the chops to plates, leaving the garlic in the skillet.
Add the water, lemon juice, parsley and crushed red pepper to the pan and cook, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom, until sizzling, about 1 minute. Pour the garlic and pan sauce over the lamb chops and serve immediately.

Review Body: If you are cooking a smaller amount I would take extra care to render the fat. I also personally heat up the oil a little more than they did in the video. Good simple recipe.

Review Body: This was a delicious, simple and easy recipe. The garlic cooked a little too quickly, but I think I used very small pieces. Loved the lemon sauce, this was a big hit with my picky eater. I, like other people on this thread, made crispy oven roasted brussels sprouts with garlic and onion with mine as well.

Review Body: Very nice recipe. I'm not sure the large garlic pieces do anything for the meat or the sauce.

Review Body: This makes me hungry. Usually, I have no appetite and really don't care to eat much of anything. I remember there was a woman named Jory Graham that had cancer and had a hard time wanting to eat anything. She put together a cookbook for people struggling with eating problems. Perhaps you could find this cookbook that might help you?
