About Lamb, New Zealand, imported, square-cut shoulder chops, separable lean only, cooked, braised
Square-cut shoulder chops from New Zealand lamb, trimmed lean and braised. The shoulder is a harder-working muscle than the leg or loin, which means more connective tissue and a need for moist, slow heat to tenderize properly. Braising does exactly that - the collagen converts, the meat becomes tender, and the braising liquid picks up deep lamb flavor. Even trimmed, cooked shoulder chops are moderately fatty and very high in protein. Satisfying and flavorful in a way that leaner cuts rarely match.
