Crispy Lamb Chops
These are just as wonderful eaten cold for lunch tomorrow
Ingredients (Serves 4)
| 10 | | lamb chops, trimmed |
| 175 g | | breadcrumbs |
| 1 tbsp | | grated Parmesan |
| 2 | | eggs, beaten with salt and pepper |
| | Olive oil for frying |
Instructions
- Layer lamb chops between two sheets of plastic wrap. Pound with a mallet or rolling pin so they flatten a little.
- In a wide, shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Put beaten eggs in a separate bowl.
- Pour some oil into a frying pan, about 1/3-inch deep, over medium heat. Dip lamb chops in egg mixture then press in breadcrumbs before frying. Cook chops for about 3 minutes each side: they should be deep golden brown and crunchy outside, still tender pink inside.
