Instructions
 

Prepare the Aji Panca Marinade

  • Combine aji panca paste, olive oil, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, oregano, cumin, smoked paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix thoroughly.

Marinate the Lamb Chops

  • Place lamb chops in a resealable bag or container. Pour the marinade over the lamb, ensuring it's fully coated. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably longer for deeper flavor.

Roast the Garlic

  • Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F). Drizzle a whole head of garlic with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Wrap tightly in aluminum foil and roast for 10-15 minutes, until soft.

Prepare the Rosemary Jus

  • Preheat oven to 170°C (340°F). Roast lamb bones for 45 minutes until browned. Meanwhile, sauté the chopped onion in a pot until browned. Add tomato paste and cook for a few minutes.
  • Add the roasted lamb bones to the pot, cover with cold water, and add a sprig of rosemary. Simmer over low heat for 2 hours, or until the liquid has reduced and thickened. Remove the bones, strain the liquid, and set aside.

Cook the Lamb Chops

  • Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated lamb chops for 2-3 minutes per side to sear, then transfer to the preheated oven and roast for 8-10 minutes for medium-rare, or longer depending on desired doneness. Roast the cherry tomatoes alongside the lamb during the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Finish the Jus

  • While the lamb is roasting, heat a small saucepan. Add the reserved rosemary sprig and brown slightly. Pour in the strained lamb jus and simmer for 5-7 minutes. Stir in butter until melted and glossy.

Serve

  • Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves from their skins. Serve the grilled lamb chops with the roasted cherry tomatoes, slow-cooked garlic, and rosemary jus. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

  • For a richer jus, add a splash of red wine to the pot along with the lamb bones.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the lamb chops. Work in batches to ensure even browning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the lamb chops to ensure they are cooked to your liking. Medium-rare is typically around 135°F (57°C).
  • For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce to the rosemary jus.
