   Lamb chops is my absolute favourite go-to recipe, and I always do them the same: either marinated in olive oil, garlic and rosemary, or with a spicy mix like yours. I also like to serve them with polenta, except yours is much prettier than mine.

   Beautiful dish! Lamb and beef are the two things widely available from ranchers in Texas, so I am always on the lookout for a new twist on a lamb recipe! Am enjoying looking around your blog!

   This dish is a good reason to try eating lamb more.

   Ooooh, I have some Aleppo pepper and some polenta currently sitting next to each other because I’ve been in the mood to use both of them lately – you know how all of a sudden ingredients just start calling to you? I hadn’t decided how to merge them yet, though… Now I have the perfect answer! Thank you!

    My mum would love love love this! She’s a huge fan of lamb and is wheat-intolerant so polenta always works well I should send her this post!

    This is mouthwatering. My tummy is literally rumbling right now! The only thing I might add is a splodge of hummous . . . probably sacrilege, but I love lamb with chickpeas!

    Your presentation is stunning: you did fancy up things a bit! I used to dislike the intense flavour of lamb, since I don’t really like meat. I then tasted the Welsh one, grown close to the sea, grazing grass: a completely different experience. Now I eat lambs only if they are really good quality, but the quality of meat I had access to in Wales is not easy to find here in Germany.

    My Hubby would be all over this meaty and comforting dish!
    I’m all over the presentation…5 star restaurant setting…exquisite!

    Have a great day and flavourful wishes,
    Claudia

    I think your presentation looks pretty fancy! Love the polenta dome and the way the chops are leaning against it.

    The only way my husband will eat lamb is if it’s grilled rack of lamb or lamb chops. These look excellent with the polenta. Good idea1

    Picture perfect dinner with delightful melange of flavors. Polenta lifts his hat and says hey- I can be comfort too, the lamb chops are relaxing and taking a nap on the polenta lounge chair. Joumana, this is a stunning dish that’s festive enough for Valentines day.

    You are such a classy little lady. I absolutely love this elegant dish. I always enjoy lamb chops because it’s the perfect portion of meat for me — not too much but very earthy and robust in flavors. This looks so wonderful

    You’re right…simple and good sourcing of lamb chops. I like then best on the grill.

    Personnellement, j’aime les côtelettes d’agneau tout simplement grillées.
    Je ne connais malheureusement pas le pain libanais à la pâte de dattes dont tu m’as parlé.
    Mais, je sais par expérience que pour avoir une pâte briochée et moelleuse: il faut du lait ( en poudre +eau ou nature) beurre et œufs.
    La pâte doit être très molle, ce qui donne beaucoup de moelleux.
    J’ai découvert aussi que le buttermilk donne un très bon moelleux à la pâte.
    Je vais chercher si je trouve quelque chose sur ce pain dans tous les livres de cuisine que j’ai.
    A très bientôt et très bon week-end.
