Step 1

Make a paste of the vegan butter, garlic, thyme, and pepper and massage it onto the lamb chops. Top with a sprinkle of kosher salt. Allow the lamb chops to marinate for at least 1 hour. Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Sear the lamb chops in a heavy skillet over high heat for 4 minutes per side, until nicely browned. Mix all glaze ingredients in a bowl. Add the glaze to the skillet and simmer for 5-10 minutes, until it starts to thicken a bit. Place the lamb chops and glaze in a baking pan, cover, and bake for 1 -2 hours, until the lamb chops are completely soft. To prepare the caramelized dates and leeks, heat the margarine in a sauté pan. Add the leeks and sauté for 10 minutes, until nice and golden. Add the dates and ginger and sauté for another 2-5 minutes. Add the wine and sauté for another 5 minutes while stirring constantly. Remove the pan from heat and cover. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes. To serve, plate a lamb chop with some of the glaze and garnish with a mound of caramelized leeks and dates. Enjoy!
