Thick-Cut Bacon Wrapped Lamb Chops

Servings: 14 servings
Author: This Worthey Life

Ingredients

  • 2 Frenched Rack of Lamb
  • freshly cracked black peppercorns to taste
  • flaky sea salt
  • 1 large onion
  • 6-8 green onions
  • fresh marjoram optional
  • 1 jar pure maple cream or sweet maple mustard

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
    Cut the Frenched rack of lamb into individual chops, and season liberally with freshly cracked black peppercorns and flaky sea salt. Tightly wrap each chop with a strip of thick-cut bacon. Arrange the quartered onions and sprigs of fresh marjoram in the bottom of a cast-iron skillet, place the thick-cut bacon-wrapped lamb chops on top. Place the lamb on the center rack of a preheated 375°F oven and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the lamb from the oven, wrap each bone with aluminum foil, and adjust the broil function.
    Carefully pour out half of the excess drippings from the skillet and return the lamb to the center rack. Broil until the thick-cut bacon has browned to your liking.
    Remove the skillet from the oven and turn each piece of lamb over, then add a generous amount of the Michigan Pure Maple Spread to each lamb chop, and place the skillet back into the oven.
    Continue to broil until the bacon is crispy or browned to your liking. Remove the lamb from the oven.
    Allow the meat to rest for 10 minutes and garnish with chopped green onion.
    Serve.
