It is lamb season and the grocery stores is full of fantastic meat. Lamb is my favorite type of meat and I can not wait to make all my favorite dishes. You can never go wrong with lamb chops marinated with garlic and herbs. I served them with parmesan baked potatoes and a provencal jus. I bought a ready made jus from the store this time but feel free to make your own.
