Lamb Chops with Crispy Shallots and Pomegranate Sauce

I made my husband Lamb Chops with Crispy Shallots and Pomegranate Sauce. We were celebrating. I have only made him lamb on one other occasion, which was his birthday. He loves lamb and always orders it when we go out for dinner because he knows I REALLY don't like lamb! Needless to say, he loved it. The Pomegranate sauce is absolutely delicious. I made myself a piece of beef.

This Salmon with Lemon-Butter-Caper Sauce is elegant and surprisingly simple to prepare. It's a classic French beurre blanc sauce, which basically are shallots simmering in a mixture of white wine and vinegar until the pot is nearly dry. Then cold cubes of butter are then added to enrich the sauce at the end.

Buttermilk-Marinated Roast Chicken

I made everything from Samin Nosrat's, Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking Netflix episode 4 - Heat. I woke up and just cooked. Actually, I had to marinate this chicken the day before and also, I made her focaccia, which I started the day before. Anyway, it was my idea of fun and relaxing. Her Buttermilk-Marinated Roast Chicken, which is the epitome of tender and delicious. It's so simple, just chicken, salt and buttermilk. The buttermilk helps to tenderize the chicken and it does just that!
