Grilled Lamb Chops with Mint Orange Sauce

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Lamb Chops with Mint Orange Sauce.

1. Step 1

   In a spacious glass or ceramic bowl, blend the lamb loin chops with a generous drizzle of olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, mixed herbs, black pepper, ground coriander, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt.

2. Step 2

   Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure each chop is beautifully coated in the aromatic marinade.

3. Step 3

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, allowing the flavors to harmonize and infuse the meat.

4. Step 4

   When you're ready to grill, preheat your outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent any sticking.

5. Step 5

   Take the marinated lamb chops out of the bowl and place them directly on the grill, sprinkling a touch of salt over the top.

6. Step 6

   Grill the first side for 4 to 7 minutes, adjusting the time based on the thickness of the chops, and remember to rotate them halfway through for that perfect char.

7. Step 7

   Flip the chops and continue grilling the other side for another 4 to 7 minutes, or until they reach your preferred doneness; for a delightful medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 125 to 130 degrees F.

8. Step 8

   Once cooked to perfection, transfer the lamb chops to a serving dish and tent them loosely with foil to keep warm.

9. Step 9

   To elevate your dish, whip up a refreshing mint orange sauce by mixing marmalade, fresh mint, vinegar, and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a bowl until well combined.

    Brush this vibrant sauce over the grilled lamb chops and serve immediately for a dish that’s sure to impress.
