Steps:
- Put honey, soy, garlic & butter into a small dish & heat gently till it blends easily with a fork.
- Add mustard to taste. It needs to balance the sweetness & saltiness so you can add quite a bit before it gets hot. Mix well.
- Coat meat thoroughly with sauce & place under the griller or in an oven (uncovered) at about 200c. (Save a little sauce for when you turn the meat over.).

Steps:
- 1. Combine all ingredients except for the lamb chops.
- 2. Trim any excess fat from the chops.
- 3. Broil for 5 minutes per side.
- 4. Brush mustard mixture over chops. Broil chops 2 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness, basting occasionally with mustard mixture.
Tips:
- Choose the right lamb chops: Look for chops that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that they are juicy and flavorful.
- Season the chops well: Lamb chops benefit from a simple seasoning of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Cook the chops over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chops while keeping the inside juicy.
- Don't overcook the chops: Lamb chops are best cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooking will make them tough and dry.
- Let the chops rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and tender chop.
Conclusion:
Lamb chops are a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. By following these tips, you can cook lamb chops that are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you're looking for a special meal, give lamb chops a try!
