Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Season the 4 lamb chops with salt and pepper. Heat a grill or grill pan over high heat until smoking, about 2 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Grill the chops for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, until nicely charred and internal temperature reaches 130°F. Remove and let rest while you make the salad.

  3. Step 3

    Chop the 2 tomatoes, 1 cucumber, and 1/2 red onion into bite-sized pieces. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and a pinch of salt.

  4. Step 4

    In a small bowl, mix the 1/2 cup yogurt with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt. Add minced garlic or lemon juice if you have them.

  5. Step 5

    Serve the lamb chops with the salad and yogurt sauce on the side.
