Here’s a delicious recipe for Lamb Chops over Lobster Mash with Asparagus:
Ingredients:
For the Lamb Chops:
- 8 lamb chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Lobster Mash:
- 2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup cooked lobster meat, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Asparagus:
- 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions:
Preparing the Lamb Chops:
- Marinate the Lamb Chops: In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture all over the lamb chops. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Cook the Lamb Chops: Heat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the lamb chops for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let them rest for a few minutes.
Making the Lobster Mash:
- Cook the Potatoes: Boil the cubed potatoes in a pot of salted water until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return them to the pot.
- Mash the Potatoes: Add heavy cream and butter to the potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. Stir in the chopped lobster meat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Preparing the Asparagus:
- Cook the Asparagus: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 10-15 minutes, or until tender and slightly crispy.
Plating:
- Assemble the Dish: Place a generous scoop of lobster mash on each plate. Top with two lamb chops and arrange the asparagus spears on the side.
- Garnish (Optional): You can garnish the dish with some fresh herbs or a drizzle of balsamic reduction for added flavor and presentation.
