This recipe offers a delightful twist on traditional lamb chops, featuring a flavorful herb and spice marinade that enhances the natural taste of the meat.
Combine the mint, coriander, garlic, paprika, cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, and olive oil in a small bowl to create the marinade.
Chop the mint finely to release its full flavor.
Rub the marinade evenly over the lamb chops, ensuring all sides are coated.
Use your hands to massage the marinade into the meat for better absorption.
Place the lamb chops in a container, cover, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
The longer the marination, the more intense the flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If the lamb chops were refrigerated, allow them to come to room temperature.
A preheated grill ensures even cooking and a good sear.
Grill the lamb chops for about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the time to your preferred doneness.
Avoid flipping the chops too often to achieve a nice crust.
Transfer the grilled lamb chops to a platter and serve immediately.
Garnish with additional fresh mint for a burst of color and flavor.
