For all sauces, simply combine ingredients in a small bowl
and use for basting. Extra sauce can be served for dipping.
Recipes cover up to 8 lamb chops.
GRILLING:
Preheat grill or barbecue on high. Cook chops about 2
minutes, until just starting to brown, before basting with
sauce (optional). Continue cooking 3-5 minutes on each
side, basting occasionally.
PAN-BROILING:
In a heavy frying pan, sear chops over high heat 11/2-
2 minutes each side, until just starting to brown, before
basting with sauce (optional). Reduce heat to medium
and cook 2-4 minutes longer, turning at least once.
Costco Tip: The firmer the feel of the meat, the more
well-done.
