8Lamb chops (4 pounds)
1tablespoonDried rosemary; crushed
All-purpose flour
2tablespoonsOlive oil
1cupDry white wine; divided

Directions

Spread mustard over lamb chops; sprinkle evenly with rosemary. Dredge chops in flour, shaking off excess flour.

Pour oil in a large skillet; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chops, and cook until browned, turning once. Reduce heat to medium; cover and cook 10 minutes.

Turn chops over, and add ¼ cup dry white wine. Cook ten additional minutes or to desired degree of doneness. Remove from skillet, and keep warm.

Add remaining ¾ cup wine to pan drippings, stirring to loosen browned particles that cling to bottom. Cook 10 minutes or until liquid is reduced to about 1 cup, stirring occasionally. Add whipping cream ; simmer 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve sauce with lamb chops. Yield: four servings.
