MIDDLE EASTERN BBQ LAMB CHOPS WITH LEMON AND SPICED SALT

This is such a fantastic way to serve lamb chops. Make up extra spiced salt as it’s a winner with seafood and other meats; even over eggs. We like to serve this with a giant salad and couscous.

To marinade the lamb chops:

For the spiced salt:

Mix cumin seeds, fennel seeds, sweet paprika and salt together in a small bowl. When the lamb is ready to cook, season with half of the spiced salt and grill on a smoking hot barbecue or griddle pan for 3-4 mins on each side for medium rare. Serve hot with slices of lemon and remaining salt
