Delicious Lamb Chops, i made them just like the recipe said. The chops were very tender The sauce is Very Very good the pineapple really made it so yummy. I served it with a salad and parsnips.

Easy recipe to follow with very good results. I halved the recipe and made the pineapple sauce right in the pan with the chops to save time and make less mess. The chops were very tasty, tender and moist and the sauce is quite good. Served it with rice and cole slaw. Enjoyed this quite a bit, even tho' I am not a big fan of lamb. I would like to try it again, maybe with pork.
