Lamb Chops (Madame de Maintenon Trim)

(Madame de Maintenon.) Trim the chops, make a forcemeat of chopped ham, bread-crumbs, and mushrooms, in equal parts, mixed with onion juice, parsley, butter, and seasoning. Put a tablespoonful on each chop; roll it in buttered paper. Bake, in a closed tin, in a hot oven, then mark them with a hot skewer, to imitate the wires of a gridiron. Serve in the papers with peas. This dish was invented to please the king whom the lady married.
