Step 1
Combine olive oil, garlic, mint, parsley, cumin, coriander, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Step 2
Pat lamb chops dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Coat chops with marinade, turning to coat both sides evenly. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Step 4
Heat grill to medium-high (or cast iron skillet over medium-high) until surface is hot, ~3 minutes.
Step 5
Sear chops 3 minutes per side without moving—meat should develop a charred crust.
Step 6
Transfer to a plate. Rest for 3 minutes before serving.
Step 7
Top yogurt with fresh mint and a pinch of sumac or paprika if desired. Arrange chops on plates.
Step 8
Drizzle any pan juices over chops. Serve yogurt sauce on the side.
