Grilled Lamb Chops With Mint Cream Sauce. Grilled Asparagus And Peppers.

Yeah!

Let’s hear it for this yummy, lamby dinner.

If you love lamb, you’ll like it grilled in this Italian inspired mix of herbs. The mint cream sauce is a perfect dipper. And one can never go wrong with grilled vegetables, imho, especially when tossed with a liberal sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.

1 tsp oregano, dried or 1 Tbs fresh
1 tsp thyme, dried or 1 Tbs fresh

2. Meanwhile, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and stir. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

3. Drain the chops. Reserve liquid.

4. Place the chops on a grill over med-high heat and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes per side – medium rare – or until desired doneness. When turning the chops over, brush some of the marinade on the chops. Serve with the Mint Cream Sauce.
