Lamb chops are succulent and flavorful cuts of meat that can be grilled, roasted, or pan-seared. When grilled, the lamb chops develop a beautiful char and a smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with a variety of sauces. One of our favorites is a spicy mango sauce, which combines the sweetness of mango with the heat of chili peppers. The result is a tropical-inspired dish that is sure to impress your dinner guests.
