 Dijon and Cranberry Lamb Chops
 
 
Marinade  
3 tablespoons    Dijon mustard  
2 tablespoons    minced garlic  
dash    sea salt  
dash    freshly ground black pepper  
4 teaspoons    chopped fresh sage leaves  
1/3 cup    chopped dried cranberries  
½ cup    extra virgin olive oil  
1 tablespoon    reduced balsamic vinegar  
Main  
6   lamb chops, 2 inches thick  
200 grams    Cherries  
2 cups    Beef, veal, or lamb stock  
 
1 Mix all marinate ingredients. Place half the marinade on the bottom of a glass container. Layer the lamb chops on the marinade. Cover the lamb with the remaining marinade.
2 Marinade, refrigerated, for 90 to 120 minutes.
3 Place cherries in just enough water to cover. Simmer covered on medium heat until the skins break. Reduce heat to low and uncover. Simmer until reduced to about ½ cup. Strain and return to a simmer until reduced to ¼ cup. Keep warm.
4 Bring stock to a simmer and reduce to ¼ cup, while the lamb is marinating. Both cherry and lamb reductions are used in the plating.
5 Preheat a grill to 600°F. If on ceramics, reduce heat to low and place the lamb, reserving marinade, on the grill, 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
6 After turning the lamb, add one tablespoon of marinade to the top of each chop.
7 Plate with the stock reduction under the lamb, and cherry drizzled over the lamb.
8 Serve with mashed potatoes and vegetables.
