Time 6h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

6 large garlic cloves
1/3 cup julienned fresh mint leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons ground turmeric
1 tablespoon whole coriander seeds
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
Kosher salt
5 tablespoons good olive oil, plus extra for the grill
3 racks of lamb (6 to 7 ribs each), cut into chops
1 1/2 cups plain whole-milk Greek yogurt (12 ounces)
1 1/2 teaspoons Sriracha
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Couscous with Pine Nuts and Mint, for serving, recipe follows
2 tablespoons good olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup chopped yellow onion
3 cups chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 1/2 cups couscous
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup julienned fresh mint leaves, loosely packed
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted

Steps:

  • Place the garlic, mint, turmeric, coriander, cumin, lemon zest, and 2 1/2 teaspoons salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until finely ground. Add the olive oil and pulse to combine.
  • Place the chops in one or two non-metal dishes large enough to hold them in one layer. Spread the garlic and herb mixture evenly on both sides. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, Sriracha, and lemon juice, and spread it evenly on the lamb chops. Cover, refrigerate, and allow to marinate for 6 to 24 hours.
  • Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals and oil the cooking grate. Sprinkle the lamb with salt and grill 5 to 6 inches above the coals, first with the yogurt side up (marinade and all) for 4 to 5 minutes, then turn and grill for 3 to 4 minutes, until medium rare. Transfer to a clean plate, cover the plate tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the couscous.
  • Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook over medium-low heat for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and remove from the heat. Cover the pot tightly and allow the couscous to steam for 10 minutes. Fluff the couscous with a fork and stir in the mint and pine nuts. Taste for seasonings and add about 1 teaspoon salt, depending on the saltiness of the stock, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Serve hot.
