Time 55m

Yield 2 chops each, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon hot English mustard
1/2 teaspoon garlic
4 large lamb chops (I prefer mutton) or 4 large mutton chops (I prefer mutton)
1 tablespoon salted butter

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.).

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 lamb chops
2 Tbsp dijon mustard
2 Tbsp fresh mint, minced or 2 teaspoons dried mint flakes
4 tsp honey
1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper

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!
