Description

Make flavorful Masala Lamb Chops with a rich blend of spices for a tender, aromatic meal. This easy recipe brings bold, Indian-inspired flavors to your dinner table.

Ingredients 

  • 8 lamb chops, about 1-inch thick
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons ground garam masala
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground paprika
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 piece fresh ginger, grated (1 inch piece)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish, optional

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, mix together yogurt, garam masala, cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish and coat them evenly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a deeper flavor.
  • Preheat the grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Grill or roast the lamb chops for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the time based on your desired level of doneness.
  • Let the lamb chops rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired, and serve with basmati rice, naan, or a side salad.
