Instructions
- Pat the lamb chop dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and ground black pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Place the lamb chop in the skillet and sear for 3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside.
- Add diced yellow onion, diced carrot, and minced garlic clove to the skillet and cook for 4 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally.
- For in the dry red wine and beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to loosen browned bits.
- Add the fresh thyme sprig to the skillet and bring the liquid to a simmer.
- Return the lamb chop to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer gently for 25 minutes until the lamb is tender.
- Remove the lamb chop and keep warm. Increase heat to medium-high and reduce the sauce by half until slightly thickened.
- Remove the thyme sprig and stir in the unsalted butter to finish the sauce with a glossy texture.
- Serve the lamb chop topped with the red wine sauce.
Tips
- Use a good quality dry red wine for best flavor.
- Do not rush searing the lamb to develop a nice crust.
- Simmer sauce gently to avoid burning and to concentrate flavors.
