Ingredients
Ingredients
- 8 lamb chops about 1.5 lbs total, bone-in or boneless
- 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 13.5 oz can full-fat coconut milk
- 10 oz fresh spinach
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Notes
Storage: Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 days. The lamb chops can be reheated gently in a 325°F oven for 10 minutes, and the sauce can be reheated on the stovetop. Make-Ahead: Marinate the lamb chops up to 24 hours in advance. You can also cook the entire dish and reheat for meal prep. The sauce may thicken upon cooling; thin with a splash of water or broth when reheating. Variations: Use chicken thighs or firm tofu instead of lamb. For a dairy-free option, ensure all ingredients are compliant. Serving Suggestions: Serve over jasmine rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice to soak up the delicious sauce. A side of sliced cucumber provides a refreshing crunch.
