Red, white and blue lamb chops

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 (8-oz) lamb shoulder chops
2 tablespoons Caribe (crushed N. New Mexico hot red chile)
4 ounces Blue cheese; crumbled
Fresh ground black pepper
1 cup Double-strength beef broth
12 Very small; thin-skinned potatoes; peeled

Directions

Preheat oven to 350. Trim excess fat from chops then arrange in a single layer in a shallow baking pan. Evenly divide caribe among chops, crushing it into both sides of each one. Sprinkle chops with cheese and several grinds of black pepper, then pour broth over all. Bake, uncovered, 1-¾ hours, basting generously every 30 minutes. Then cook potatoes in boiling water about 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and arrange around chops.

Spoon lots of pan juices over potatoes; continue to bake 15 minutes longer or until chops are fork-tender. Serve sauce separately to spoon over chops.

Makes 4 servings.
