Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Juice of 1 lime
1 garlic clove, peeled
One 1/2-inch-long piece fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
Fresh or dried chile to taste
1/2 cup whole-milk yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 cup fresh mint leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 shoulder or leg lamb chops or 12 rib or loin chops (about 1 pound)

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or broiler to moderately hot; put the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Meanwhile, make the chutney: Combine the lime juice, garlic, ginger, chile, yogurt, and sugar in a food processor or blender and puree. Stir in the mint by hand, then add salt and pepper to taste.
  • When the chutney is ready, grill the chops for 3 to 4 minutes per side, by which time they will be medium-rare, or until they reach the desired degree of doneness. Serve the lamb chops with the chutney.
