Coriander Lamb Chops

Coriander Lamb Chops are succulent, marinated chops grilled to perfection, infused with aromatic spices and a hint of sweetness from the honey substitute, making them a deliciously unique keto-friendly dish. This Chinese BBQ-inspired recipe combines fresh coriander and garlic for a burst of flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

• Lamb chops - 400 grams
• Fresh coriander - 30 grams, chopped
• Garlic - 4 cloves, minced
• Soy sauce (low sodium) - 60 ml
• Rice vinegar - 15 ml
• Olive oil - 30 ml
• Honey substitute (erythritol or monk fruit) - 1 tablespoon
• Ground black pepper - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, olive oil, honey substitute, minced garlic, ground black pepper, cumin powder, and salt to create the marinade.
2. Add the chopped coriander to the marinade and stir well.
3. Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
4. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
5. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade, shaking off excess, and place them on the hot grill.
6. Cook the lamb chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached.
7. Let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
8. Serve hot with additional fresh coriander for garnish, if desired.
