    Looking for a great lamb chop recipe to try? These sides would pair perfectly with these pan-seared lamb chops, my easy air fryer lamb chops, grilled lamb chops, and even lamb shoulder chops!

    1. Creamed Spinach

    Creamed spinach is a classic steakhouse side dish that pairs wonderfully with lamb chops! This version is ultra-cheesy with mozzarella, cream cheese, and Parmesan!

    My secret ingredient is a pinch of nutmeg which adds a lovely depth of flavor to the dish!

    Steakhouse Creamed Spinach
    Steakhouse creamed spinach is one of my all-time favorite sides because it's rich, creamy, and so easy to make! Spinach is coated in a creamy sauce loaded with mozzarella, cream cheese, and Parmesan – it’s perfect for Sunday dinner, date night, or anytime you want an amazing side!

    2. Dauphinoise Potatoes

    These simple yet indulgent potatoes taste as good as they look! The potatoes are sliced very thin and baked in a creamy combination of Gruyere cheese, butter, heavy cream, and garlic.

    It's an elegant side dish worthy of even the most gourmet meals!

    Dauphinoise Potatoes (Cheesy Potatoes Gratin Dauphinoise)
    Dauphinoise potatoes are simple and cheesy thin-sliced potatoes layered with cream, butter, and cheese for an incredible side dish! This easy potato dish is so elegant and beautiful, it almost looks too good to eat! The flavor is so mouthwateringly delicious, you’ll never want to make potatoes another way!

    3. Honey Glazed Carrots

    Everyone will love these sweet, fragrant carrots- especially with lamb chops! The sweetness of the carrots balances the rich, earthy flavor of lamb meat perfectly.

    The recipe itself could not be easier. Just toss the carrots with honey, a bit of brown sugar, and fresh herbs, and pop them in the oven!

    Honey Glazed Carrots
    These oven roasted honey glazed carrots are the perfect easy vegetable side dish for any time of the year! They are sweet and fragrant and pair wonderfully with ham or turkey around the holidays. The winning combination of honey, brown sugar, and fresh herbs is what takes these tender honey glazed roasted carrots over the top!

    4. Turmeric Rice

    If you enjoy lamb with a Middle Eastern flare, turmeric rice is the way to go. This vibrant yellow rice not only looks beautiful on the plate but it's a hearty accompaniment to lamb chops that will keep you full for longer.

    If you don't enjoy the earthy and slightly bitter taste of turmeric, try my vermicelli rice instead!

    Turmeric Rice
    This turmeric rice is a delicious and quick Indian-inspired side dish that's perfect for any night of the week! This easy fluffy rice is packed with flavor from turmeric and aromatic seasonings to make an incredible side dish that goes well with any main course! Fluffy, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully golden turmeric rice is a side anyone will enjoy!

    5. Buttered Peas and Carrots

    If you're looking for a quick and easy vegetable side dish, why not whip up some classic peas and carrots? It's a crowd favorite for kids and adults alike!

    There are two simple methods for making buttered peas and carrots on the stove top or in the microwave! Either way yields perfectly fork-tender carrots and sweet buttery peas.

    Buttered Peas & Carrots
    Tasty buttered peas & carrots are a classic vegetable side dish that can easily be made either on the stove or in the microwave! Sometimes the most simple recipes are the best, and this delicious combination of tender carrots and buttery sweet peas is one of those times!

    6. Balsamic Roasted Brussel Sprouts

    These tasty brussel sprouts are tossed with a simple combination of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and honey for a sweet and tangy punch of flavor! The brussel sprouts are perfectly fork tender but caramelized on the edges until slightly crisp.

    You can have these sprouts on the table in just 30 minutes, so they make a great last-minute addition to a plate of lamb chops!

    Balsamic Roasted Brussel Sprouts
    My quick balsamic roasted brussel sprouts are tossed with olive oil, tangy balsamic vinegar, and sweet honey – the flavor is out of this world! These delightfully crispy brussel sprouts are the ultimate easy veggie side dish!

    7. Air Fryer Asparagus

    Another great last-minute vegetable to pair with lamb chops is asparagus! I particularly like making it in my air fryer because it's quick and easy, plus cleanup is a breeze.

    You can cook your asparagus as crispy as you like in the air fryer, and the dry heat caramelizes the natural sugars which gives them a nice toasty sweetness.

    Air Fryer Asparagus
    This air fryer asparagus is roasted to perfection in just minutes. It's an easy vegetable side dish that the whole family will love! All it takes is some asparagus, extra virgin olive oil, and salt & pepper (for extra flavor, you can also add some Parmesan cheese)!

    8. Pan Fried Sweet Potatoes

    Sweet and savory pan-fried sweet potatoes are a great alternative to classic mashed potatoes or baked potatoes. (Though baked sweet potatoes would be great, too!)

    When you pan-fry sweet potatoes, the outside gets crisp and caramelized while the inside stays fluffy and soft. All you need is a little seasoning and some olive oil!

    Pan Fried Sweet Potatoes
    Pan fried sweet potatoes are a quick and easy side dish that's cooked to crispy perfection with minimal ingredients! These tasty sweet potatoes are tossed with olive oil and seasoning, then fried until fork tender. Serve them up nice and hot for the whole family to enjoy!

    9. Fresh Green Bean Casserole

    Green bean casserole is not just for the holidays! I love this made-from-scratch version using fresh green beans, though you could certainly serve classic Campbell's green bean casserole, too.

    This version bakes the green beans in a cheesy, creamy sauce with a crispy topping made with Panko breadcrumbs, fried onions, and savory bits of salty bacon (the bacon is optional, but one of my favorite additions)!

    Fresh Green Bean Casserole From Scratch
    Fresh green bean casserole from scratch is packed with fresh green beans, garlic, and creamy sauce, then topped with fried onions! This dish is so much more flavorful than anything you could whip up using canned ingredients. In fact, it makes a perfect addition to any of your holiday menus!

    10. Lemon Asparagus Orzo

    Lemon Asparagus Orzo

    11. Oven Garlic Bread

    When in doubt, whip up some garlic bread! You can make this oven-baked garlic bread as soft or as crispy as you like.

    All it takes is some French bread, garlic powder, and butter, though I like to add a little Parmesan cheese sometimes, too. Pop your bread in the oven for just 10 minutes and it's ready to enjoy!

    Oven Garlic Bread: Soft & Chewy or Baked Until Crispy!
    This incredible oven garlic bread recipe features 2 methods: one for those who prefer soft garlic bread and one for those who prefer crispy! All you need is some French bread, garlic powder, and butter (plus a little Parmesan cheese if you like) to make restaurant-quality garlic bread at home!

    12. Sauteed Yellow Squash

    It doesn't get easier than this quick sauteed yellow squash recipe. All you need is a little cooking oil, some fresh herbs, salt, and pepper!

    Yellow squash cooks up quickly and can be on the table in less than 5 minutes!

    13. Roasted Beets

    To make roasted beets you only need 3 basic ingredients: salt, olive oil, and beets! I sometimes toss them in a bit of butter before serving, but that's totally optional.

    You don't even have to peel them! Just dice, combine with oil and salt, then pop them in the oven for an easy vegetable side dish with plenty of flavor.

    Roasted Beets
    Oven roasted beets are an easy vegetable side dish that can be made by simply wrapping them in foil pouches and popping them in the oven! These bite-sized roasted beets turn out delightfully tender, slightly sweet, and best of all, you only need 3 ingredients!

    14. Bacon Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes

    Wave goodbye to boring mashed potatoes and hello to ultra-creamy bacon and cream cheese mashed potatoes! These tasty add-ins make these mashed potatoes extra rich and satisfying, so they don't need gravy (though they are still delicious with it)!

    Bacon Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes
    These bacon cream cheese mashed potatoes are a creamy, savory, and completely delicious side dish that pairs well with any meal! Mashed potatoes are mixed with cream cheese, bacon, butter, and herbs for an extra special combination. Once you try out this tasty side, you'll never want to make mashed potatoes another way again!

    15. Lamb Gravy

    You can put this rich and savory lamb gravy directly on your chops, potatoes, or both! I like to incorporate any pan drippings from the lamb chops, though you can make it with butter, too.

    This gravy takes just minutes to make from scratch and will transform your lamb chops into an extraordinary meal!

    Lamb Gravy
    Lamb gravy is a simple and flavorful sauce made from the juices of roasted lamb that will elevate any lamb dinner! This rich gravy is made with 4 ingredients and only takes minutes to prepare. You'll never want to use a lamb gravy mix again after making this amazing sauce from scratch!
