Ingredients
4 thick-cut bone-in lamb chops
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried thyme
1 medium onion, sliced into thick half-moons
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Place the sliced onions at the bottom of the slow cooker to create a flavor bed.
Season both sides of the lamb chops with salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.
Lay the seasoned chops on top of the onion bed in a single layer.
Pour the chicken broth and minced garlic carefully around the sides of the meat.
Set the slow cooker to low heat and cook for 4 hours.
Verify the internal temperature of the meat reaches 145°F before serving.
Notes
Always select bone-in cuts as they remain significantly juicier than boneless varieties during long cook times. For extra depth, sear the chops in a hot pan for one minute per side before placing them in the slow cooker. Keep the lid closed throughout the entire duration to prevent heat loss and ensure consistent cooking.
