About Lamb, domestic, loin, separable lean only, trimmed to 1/4" fat, choice, cooked, broiled
The lamb chop is a small, tender cut from the loin, prized for its rich, distinctive flavor — more pronounced than beef and unmistakably its own. Trimmed and quickly broiled, as here, it's a fast-cooking cut as at home on a weeknight as at a special dinner.
Lamb is a nutritious red meat: high in complete protein and an excellent source of the heme iron, zinc and vitamin B12 that red meats supply so well, plus niacin and selenium. Even trimmed it tends to be a little fattier than the leanest beef cuts, with a good share of that as saturated fat.
Its bold flavor means a modest portion satisfies — a couple of chops with vegetables make a rich, deeply savory meal.
