Tomato and Red Wine Sauce is PERFECT with Lamb!

Lamb Shoulder Chops were on sale over the weekend so of course, I had to pick some up. These can be a bit tougher than the Loin Chops so braising is definitely the way to go. Unlike Shanks though, they don't need to be cooked for hours, just 30-40 minutes is enough to tenderize them, which makes them doable on a weeknight. Tonight, I made these Tomato and Red Wine Braised Chops and they turned out just perfect! Whenever a recipe calls for canned tomatoes, I always use Fire-Roasted cuz it gives the dish a much deeper flavor. The meat was really tender and the sauce was just perfect served over some mashed potatoes! What a great way to start the week!
