Ingredients

Mint Sauce
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 cup mint, finely chopped
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Meat
4 small lamb chops

Mushrooms
1 tablespoon butter, divided in two
1/2 lb mushroom, mixed wild and cultivated varieties

Preparation

In a small mixing bowl, combine vinegar, mustard, honey and mint. Add salt, pepper and olive oil. Stir well and set aside.
Heat a regular (not non-stick) skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle lamb chops with black pepper. Sprinkle kosher salt into pan. Place chops in pan. Cook 2-4 min per side for medium rare, 3-6 min per side for medium well.
In another skillet, melt 1/2 tbsp butter. Add mushrooms. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Saute about 5 min, until mushrooms have released all their juices and are nice and soft. Add water and stir. Scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Add 1/2 tbsp butter and cook until melted.
Serve lamb chops with mint sauce, and mushrooms on the side.
