Best Grilled Lamb Chops With Garam Masala Recipes

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH GARAM MASALA

Steps:

• Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. In a bowl, combine garam masala, salt, and pepper. Place lamb chops on a baking sheet or platter, and drizzle with oil; rub chops to coat evenly all over. Sprinkle tops of chops with half the spice mixture, and gently rub onto meat. Turn chops over; repeat with remaining spice mixture.
• Grill chops until they reach desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Serve immediately, garnished with cilantro.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• In a food processor fitted with a metal blade add the garlic, rosemary, thyme, cayenne, and salt. Pulse until combined. Pour in olive oil and pulse into a paste. Rub the paste on both sides of the lamb chops and let them marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. Remove from refrigerator and allow the chops to come to room temperature; it will take about 20 minutes.
• Heat a grill pan over high heat until almost smoking, add the chops and sear for about 2 minutes. Flip the chops over and cook for another 3 minutes for medium-rare and 3 1/2 minutes for medium.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH ROSEMARY SALT

Steps:

• Mix together the oregano, garlic, lemon zest from 1 lemon, lemon juice and 1/4 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the lamb chops with kosher salt and pepper and add to the marinade, thoroughly coating. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, and up to 6 hours.
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• In the meantime, mix the flaky sea salt, rosemary and remaining lemon zest. Work the mixture with your fingers, releasing the oils from the zest and rosemary. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and place on the direct heat side of the grill. Char on both sides and cook to an internal temperature of 125 degrees F for medium-rare, about 6 minutes. If the lamb chops become too charred, but the internal temperature is still low, move them to the indirect heat side of the grill to finish cooking.
• Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the lemon rosemary salt before serving.

PAKISTANI-STYLE GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine the ginger, garlic, lemon juice, salt, cayenne, black pepper, and garam masala in a shallow dish large enough to hold the chops. Mix well. Rub this marinade on both sides of the chops, cover, and refrigerate 4-24 hours.
• Just before eating, preheat the broiler and set a rack 4-5 inches from the source of heat.
• Put the chops, with any marinade that clings to them easily, in a baking tray, brush both sides with oil, and place under broiler. Broil 3-4 minutes on each side or until browned. If the chops are an inch thick they will still be pink inside, the way I like them. If you want them more done, put them in a 350°F oven for 5-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chops and the doneness desired.

HERB AND MUSHROOM LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Pat chops dry and remove any bone fragments.
• Mix olive oil, ginger-garlic paste, chili powder, cumin, paprika, pepper, salt, and garam masala together in a glass or ceramic bowl. Rub mixture on both sides of the lamb chops. Cover chops with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 to 40 minutes, or overnight.
• Let chops sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high to high heat until smoking; add the chops. If it is a big pan, all can be cooked in one batch, if not, in 2 batches. Cook until firm and slightly pink in the centers, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium doneness. Remove to a plate.
• Prepare sauce: Heat butter in the same pan over medium heat. Saute shallot until light golden, about 5 minutes; add mushrooms and fry until slightly browned. Add garlic and cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in 1 tablespoon each rosemary and thyme. Pour in wine and bring to a simmer while scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until reduced and thickened.
• Remove from heat. Arrange the chops in the sauce and let sit to absorb flavors, about 5 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and garnish with remaining rosemary and thyme; sprinkle with sliced chiles.

SIMPLE GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix together the vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and olive oil in a large resealable bag until the salt has dissolved. Add lamb, toss until coated, and marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Remove lamb from the marinade and leave any onions on that stick to the meat. Discard any remaining marinade. Wrap the exposed ends of the bones with aluminum foil to keep them from burning. Grill to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium. The chops may also be broiled in the oven about 5 minutes per side for medium.
