Ingredients
-
½ cup plain yogurt
-
1 large lemon, zested and juiced
-
4 cloves garlic, crushed
-
2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary
-
1 tablespoon chile paste
-
1 teaspoon dried oregano
-
1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
-
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or more to taste
-
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
8 lamb loin chops
Directions
-
Whisk yogurt, lemon zest and juice, garlic, rosemary, chile paste, oregano, salt, pepper, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag. Add lamb chops to the bag; coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours, or for best flavor, up to 10 hours.
-
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
-
Remove lamb chops from marinade and scrape off excess. Discard used marinade. Season chops with salt and pepper.
-
Cook chops on the preheated grill until browned on the outside and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
