1 can (14 ounces) artichoke hearts in water rinsed, drained, and quartered
8 loin lamb chops each 1 inch thick (about 2 pounds total)
Directions
In a blender, purée pistachios with ¼ cup parsley and ¼ cup water until smooth (add a splash more water if necessary). Season well with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Season lamb with salt and pepper, and place in skillet. Cook until medium-rare, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Reserve skillet (and any fat left in it).
Add tomatoes, artichokes, and ¼ cup water to skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high, stirring frequently, until tomatoes begin to soften, 6 to 8 minutes. Mix in remaining ¼ cup parsley. Serve lamb with vegetable sauté and pistachio sauce.

Nothing prettier than some gorgeous glowing buttery crust. And it's not the butter that concerns me in these things it's the sugar! 130 grams sugars not including 60g in the icing.
