  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can cook the lamb chops until they are slightly pink in the center. This will ensure that they are cooked through but still tender and juicy.
  • To make the pistachio and sumac crust, use a food processor to grind the pistachios and sumac together until they form a fine powder. You can also use a mortar and pestle to do this.
  • If you don't have time to make the pistachio and sumac crust, you can simply sprinkle the lamb chops with salt and pepper before cooking. Adding some dried thyme or rosemary would also be delicious.
  • The apricot glaze is a delicious and flavorful addition to the lamb chops. To make the glaze, simply combine apricot preserves, Dijon mustard, and honey in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to the glaze if you want a bit of tang.
