Lamb neck chops are cuts from the neck portion of the lamb, a piece highly valued for its juiciness and intense flavor. These chops are characterized by a slightly more gelatinous texture due to the presence of collagen, making them ideal for grilling, roasting, or braising, where their tenderness and characteristic aroma can be highlighted.
Lamb is a traditional ingredient in many Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and various Latin American cuisines, where it is valued for its distinct flavor and versatility. Neck chops are often more economical compared to other cuts, but no less flavorful.
Properties: Lamb neck is a good source of high-quality protein, B vitamins (especially B12 and niacin), and essential minerals such as zinc, iron, and phosphorus. Furthermore, its fat content helps contribute juiciness and flavor to dishes.
Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: in different regions, these chops may also be known as cuadril de cordero, costillas de cuello, or simply chuletas de cordero, although the specific term "chuletas de cuello" is common and recognizable in most countries.
