For an elevated, but easy dinner, try our recipe for rosemary lamb chops. Sous vide is the perfect method for cooking delicate lamb chops because you can ensure even cooking throughout each chop. We sear the fat cap on each chop in a hot pan to render the fat, which serves the dual purpose of crisping the meat and also lending more lamb flavor to each chop. We serve the lamb with a simple red wine vinaigrette studded with mint, garlic, and fresh rosemary.
Note: We recommend vacuum sealing the lamb chops using the water displacement method, as a very strong electric vacuum sealer can cause the bones in the lamb chops to poke holes in the bag.
Rosemary Lamb Chops
Ingredients
- 4 bone-in lamb chops, about 12 ounces
- 2 sprigs rosemary, plus 1 tsp minced rosemary leaves
- 1 small sprig mint
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp olive oil, plus 1 tsp, separated
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp vegetable oil, optional
Directions
1) Pat lamb chops dry and season generously with 2 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp black pepper. Vacuum seal with 1 tsp olive oil and 2 sprigs rosemary. Place vacuum-sealed lamb in a Suvie pan and cover with water.

2) While the lamb cooks, mince the mint. In a small bowl, stir together remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, mint, garlic, minced rosemary, and ¼ tsp salt.
3) Once the lamb has finished cooking, remove from vacuum bags and pat dry. Heat a cast iron pan over high heat for 5 minutes. Place lamb chops, fat cap side down in the pan and sear to render the fat, about 30 to 60 seconds (if your chops do not have a large fat cap add 1 tsp vegetable oil to the pan). Turn chops to sear one side until browned, about 30 seconds. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds.
4) Divide lamb between plates, spooning reserved sauce over the top.

I have an issue with the app and web site for recipes. I cannot print them, print icon gives a blank page or 7 pages long. There is also no way to save recipes in the app. There is no back button so searching on the app means going back to the beginning after clicking on a recipe. The app needs some work. I enjoy the machine but the app needs work.
