Preparation

  1. Make a paste of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, cayenne pepper, coriander, black pepper, garam masala and nicely coat the lamb chops with it. To this add  garlic and ginger paste,  crushed cardamom and clove and the onions. Mix all together and let it sit in the refrigerator for 4 hours. The longer the better for the flavors to absorb.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 and coat the pan with olive oil and put the rest of the onions at the bottom and lay the chops on the bed of onions. Add any remaining marinade to this as well.  Cook it in the oven for about 2o minutes. Afterwards turn the oven mode to broiler and cook both sides for another 10 minutes, looking in between to see that it doesn’t get burned.
  3. If it requires more cooking, turn the oven down to 400 and cook for another few minutes till it is well done.

Tips:

  1. In this recipe, the meat was well cooked, and even browned a bit.
