  2. Your mother was a smart cook! And Italian dishes are a perfect example of simplicity when it comes to cooking. I love what you did here. Great flavors. the other day I just cooked myself 3 little lamb chops using a little salt. That’s all. It was wonderful. The meat just spoke for itself! But I love your recipe, too! It’s just that my husband doesn’t eat lamb. So when I have it, it’s just for me!
