Step 1
Cut peppers into 1-inch chunks. Pat lamb chops dry and season generously with salt, pepper, and sumac.
Step 2
Thread lamb chops, pepper chunks, and cherry tomatoes alternately onto two metal skewers, dividing evenly.
Step 3
Heat a grill or grill pan over high heat until smoking, about 2 minutes. Lay skewers on grill without moving.
Step 4
Grill 3 minutes per side for medium-rare lamb with charred edges. Tomatoes and peppers should soften and char.
Step 5
While skewers cook, mince garlic and whisk with juice of 1 lemon, 3 tbsp olive oil, and a pinch of salt.
Step 6
Warm flatbread on the grill 30 seconds per side. Slide skewers onto a plate, drizzle with lemon-garlic sauce, serve with flatbread.
