Quick under the broiler, these impressive chops cook to perfect medium-rare with minimal effort. A restaurant-quality dish that's actually simple enough for weeknight cooking when you want something special.

💬 Uncle Dave says... In this very simple recipe, the spices, mint, garlic, and oil form a crust that helps seal in the lamb's juices. Sautee carrots and roasted potatoes would be nice on the side.
