Ingredients

1 cup whole-milk plain yogurt 

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice 

1/8 teaspoon paprika 

1/8 teaspoon ground cumin 

8 rib lamb chops 

1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt 

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 

Mint sprigs for garnish (optional) 

Preparation

Make the yogurt sauce: Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, paprika, and cumin in a small bowl, and set aside in the refrigerator.

Make the chops: Heat the grill to medium heat. Sprinkle chops with salt and pepper, and grill until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Serve with the reserved yogurt sauce and mint sprigs if desired.
