Aromatic Vietnamese Lamb Chops
Ingredients
  • 15 (3 ounce) lamb loin chops (1-inch thick)
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
  • 1 pinch chili powder
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 lemon wedges
  • 2 lime wedges
Instructions
1
Place the lamb chops in a roasting dish to begin cooking; sprinkle with sugar, minced garlic, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to add flavor. Drizzle the lamb chops with olive oil, 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice, and soy sauce to enhance the taste. Cover the pan with a lid; refrigerate for an extended period overnight.
2
Next, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) for optimal cooking. Allow the lamb chops to sit at room temperature while your oven is warming up.
3
Finally, roast the lamb chops in the preheated oven, uncovered, until they reach your desired level of doneness, which should take approximately 20 minutes for medium or 30 minutes for well-done. Garnish with chopped cilantro and squeeze the juice of lemons and limes over the top before presenting your dish.
