Ingredients
  

For the glaze
  • 1/4 cup Honey Use a good quality honey for best results.
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup Soy sauce Use low-sodium if desired.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil Any neutral oil can be substituted.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust based on taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper Adjust based on taste.
Main ingredients
  • 4 pieces Lamb chops Bone-in or boneless, as preferred.
  • Fresh herbs to taste Optional, for garnish Chopped fresh herbs are recommended.

Method
 

Prepare the glaze
  1. In a bowl, mix honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  2. Stir until the honey thins and the garlic is evenly distributed.
  3. Taste and adjust the salt or honey as needed.
Marinate the lamb
  1. Marinate the lamb chops in the glaze for at least 30 minutes, ideally in the fridge for an hour.
Cooking the lamb
  1. Preheat your grill, skillet, or oven.
  2. Cook the lamb chops for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, basting with the glaze.
  3. Let the chops develop a brown crust and ensure the glaze thickens on the surface.
Rest and serve
  1. Let the lamb chops rest on a warm plate for 3-5 minutes before serving.
  2. Serve with roasted veggies or mashed potatoes, garnished with fresh herbs and any leftover glaze.

Notes

Storage: Leftover lamb can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a low oven or skillet. Freezing is also possible; wrap each chop tightly and store for up to 2 months.
