Method

  1. Marinade the chops, start by dry frying the spices for a few moments then mix all the marinade ingredients together.
  2. Coat the lamb with the marinade, place in the chiller, covered with Cling Film.
  3. After a couple of hours remove the chops from the chiller & bring to room temperature.
  4. Preheat your griddle BBQ or heavy based frying pan until it sizzles when you add a drop of oil.
  5. Cook the chops over high heat turning only once creating a rich, golden crust.
  6. Cook 3 to 4 minutes each side for medium rare, a little more if you like the lamb cooked through.
  7. Once cooked leave to rest in a warm place for a few minutes before serving.
