Very good! The rustic style beans were just perfect with the lamb. I loved the combination of fresh rosemary and balsamic vinegar. I made the recipe as directed using the wonderful beans from Whole Foods that come in a glass jar instead of a can. The flavor difference is amazing. I finely chop fresh rosemary, so I decreased the amount to 1 tsp. I served the dish with a green salad seasoned only with a high quality olive oil, salt and pepper. Our guests brought homemade Tuscan bread and we sipped on a Super Tuscan red. The only thing I would do different would be to season the lamb chops with a bit of garlic while cooking them. Our guests left happily with a copy of your recipe.
