Spicy Grilled Lamb Chops
Ingredients
- 8 lamb chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Pinto’s Pride Asian Dark Soy Sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Pinto’s Pride red pepper hot sauce (fiery spice)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh mint leaves, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (for serving)
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, chili powder, and red pepper hot sauce until well combined. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper on both sides, then place them in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the lamb chops, making sure they're evenly coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. Grill the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer according to your preference, basting occasionally with the leftover marinade. Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the lamb chops from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish the grilled lamb chops with chopped mint leaves and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
