Icelandic lamb chops are in season and therefore I should enjoy. So I just did that. Whole Foods sells this meat and here is a quick summary on what this lamb is from the Whole Foods site "Icelandic lamb is a wonderfully flavorful, exceptionally lean meat from animals raised with no antibiotics, ever and no added hormones. Pesticides and herbicides are seldom used in Iceland where the climate naturally protects the land. All in all, Icelandic lambs are amazingly robust and live in an idyllic, geographically isolated country' whose strict agriculture regulations protect the integrity of the lamb you are buying.

The butcher recommended sauteing in pork fat with an all purpose meat seasoning in a very hot pan, a couple of a minutes on each side. I had it with an arugula salad with roasted pumpkin seeds, grated hard cheese, olive oil and fresh lemon. Serve with a whole wheat baguette with goat milk butter and for wine I recommend a Petit Sirah, Bordeaux or a Zinfandel. A Rosenblum wine works perfectly with this meal.
