Ingredients
– 10 lamb chops
– 1/2 cup dry red wine
– 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1-1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
– 2 tablespoons butter
– 2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
– 1/2 cup lamb or beef stock
– 2 tablespoon butter

Instruction
Place lamb chops in a shallow dish. Combine wine, oil, garlic and rosemary. Pour over meat and marinate for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator. Be sure to turn frequently. Remove meat, reserving marinade and pat the meat dry with paper towels. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat; cook meat for about 3 minutes on each side or to desired doneness (lamb is best when still pink inside). Remove meat and keep warm. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from pan; add onions and saute for 1 minute for until soft. Strain reserved marinade and add to pan along with stock. Over high heat, reduce sauce slightly; add any juices that have accumulated around lamb chops. Whisk in 2 tablespoons butter; season to taste with salt and pepper. Strain sauce if desired.
