Grilled Baby Lamb Chops with Orange-Mint Yogurt Sauce
Recipe courtesy Bobby Flay

Ingredients
24 baby lamb chops
Olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 oranges, halved
Orange-Mint Yogurt Sauce, recipe follows
Chopped fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Directions
Heat grill to high. Brush chops with oil on both sides and season with
salt and pepper. Grill the chops for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until cooked to a medium-rare
doneness. Brush the orange halves with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill oranges, cut side
down, until golden brown. Remove oranges from the grill and cut each half into quarters. Place bowl
of yogurt sauce in the center of a platter and arrange chops around it with the orange quarters.
Garnish with chopped mint.

Ingredients
Orange-Mint Yogurt Sauce:

Directions
8 ounces yogurt
1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint leaves
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Place the yogurt in a medium strainer lined with cheesecloth and place over a bowl. Refrigerate for
at least 8 hours or overnight. Alternatively, buy thick Greek yogurt, which does not need to be
drained. Scrape the drained yogurt into a clean bowl and discard the liquid that has drained. Stir
in the remaining ingredients and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
