Grilled lamb chops with lemon cardamom is a very simple recipe. The lemon and cardamom add an oriental touch that will delight those unfamiliar with lamb.
Grill over hot coals or stove grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until the desired degree of doneness is achieved, frequently brushing with marinade. You may use a meat and cook the meat to 140°F for medium rare. Allow the chops to rest 3 to 5 minutes before eating; they will continue to cook.
Place the chops, bones down, into the remaining lemon for an original presentation.
