Ingredients

• 8 pieces Lamb chops
• 1 cup Yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Ginger-garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Fennel powder
• 1 teaspoon Garam masala
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Clean and pat dry the lamb chops with a paper towel.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, Kashmiri red chili powder, turmeric powder, fennel powder, garam masala, ground coriander, and salt until fully combined.

Step 3

Add the lamb chops to the marinade, ensuring each chop is coated well. Cover the bowl and let the lamb marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator. For best results, marinate overnight.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Remove the marinated lamb chops from the refrigerator and let them rest at room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking.

Step 6

Place the lamb chops on the skillet/grill pan, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust and are cooked to your desired doneness.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the lamb chops from the skillet, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
