Ingredients

🐑 1 rack of lamb, cut into individual chops
🧂 Salt, to taste
🌿 1 tablespoon all-purpose seasoning
🌶️ 1 teaspoon paprika
🥛 1 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
🧈 2 tablespoons butter
🍯 2 tablespoons honey
🌾 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

1- Prepare the Lamb Chops:

• Start by cutting the rack of lamb into individual lollipop chops.

2- Marinate:

• Place the lamb chops into a large mixing bowl.
• Season generously with salt, all-purpose seasoning, and paprika.
• Add low-fat Greek yogurt to the mix.
• Use your hands to blend thoroughly, ensuring the lamb chops are evenly coated. The yogurt not only imparts flavor but also tenderizes the meat.

3- Cook the Lamb Chops:

• Preheat a large pan over medium heat and add a small drizzling of oil.
• Arrange the lamb chops in the heated pan without overcrowding.
• Top each chop with small slices of butter for richness.
• Cook each side until the chops are golden brown and reach your desired level of doneness—roughly 5-7 minutes per side for medium rare.

4- Finish with a Glaze:

• Once cooked, drizzle honey over the lamb chops for a touch of sweetness.
• Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the glazed chops for a nuttiness and visual appeal.

5- Serve:

• Plate the glazed lamb chops and pair with your choice of southern sides like mac and cheese, collard greens, or candied yams for a complete meal.
