🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
🌶 1 teaspoon paprika
🟠 1/2 teaspoon bijol (optional, for color)
🧂 1 teaspoon sea salt
🌑 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
🌿 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

For the Sauce:
🥛 1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
🍯 1 tablespoon honey
🍶 2 tablespoons Honey BBQ sauce

Instructions

1- Prepare the Marinade:

• In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, honey, BBQ seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, bijol, sea salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley.
• Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

2- Marinate the Lamb:

• Place the lamb chops in the marinade, ensuring that they are thoroughly coated.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

3- Preheat the Grill or Oven:

• If grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
• If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C).

4- Cook the Lamb:

• Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and shake off any excess.
• If grilling, place the chops on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on thickness, until they reach your desired level of doneness.
• If using an oven, place the lamb chops on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking.

5- Prepare the Sauce:

• In a small bowl, mix the yogurt, honey, and Honey BBQ sauce until smooth.
• Adjust the sweetness to taste.

6- Serve:

• Let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes after cooking.
• Serve with a generous drizzle of the Honey BBQ sauce.
