3 out of 4 thought this was really good but the 4th thought not bad o'kay wasn't fully enamoured with the taste. I was nice and easy to do, I used lamb loin chops (14 for 4 of us - 2 persons had 4 and the other 2 had 3) and I cooked them in the frypan for about 12 to 14 minutes to near well done which is how the majority like it (I'm not in the majority). Thank you dicentra for a recipe I will make when the dissenta is on night shift.

I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
