Tender loving cooking care is involved with preparing these lamb chops. They are lightly seared, baked, breaded and baked again. The accompanying sauce is flambéed to capture the rich flavor of the wine without the alcohol taste. And, the veggies are uniquely seasoned carrots. Making this a delicious meal.
