Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup cilantro lightly packed, fresh
  • 1 cup parsley lightly packed, fresh
  • 10 cloves garlic
  • 4 Serrano peppers chopped
  • 2 teaspoon kosher salt divided
  • 2 teaspoon black pepper divided, freshly cracked
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice fresh
  • ¼ cup olive oil divided
  • ¼ cup mint chopped, fresh
  • 2 lbs lamb chops American

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processor, add the cilantro, parsley, garlic, serrano peppers, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, cumin, cardamom, and lemon juice. Pulse until a rough pulp forms, then add 1 tablespoons of olive oil and continue to process until smooth. Add in remaining salt, pepper, olive oil, mint and pulse a few more times until combined.
  2. Add lamb chops to a bag or bowl and coat in the marinade, turning the chops to ensure they're completely coated. Allow to marinate for a minimum of 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.
  3. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high and brush with oil. Grill lamb chops in batches until medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • *though there are several peppers in this recipe, after grilling, the meat is not inherently spicy. I would not exclude the peppers as the flavor they impart is very important.
  • *use curly parley versus Italian parsley.
  • *if you only have 1 hour to marinate the chops, leave them on the counter, covered. If marinating longer than 1 hour, keep the chops refrigerated, then allow to warm to room temperature before grilling.
