Tumeric Spiced Lamb Chops

Advanced & Core Plan

Serves 6-8

This is a very simple, robustly spiced dish.  The flavors match wonderfully with the lamb and you get the health benefits of all of these pungent spices.  Turmeric has widely known healing properties and it gives the lamb a beautiful golden crust and distinct taste.  

• 6-8 organic, grass-fed lamb chops (looks like a mini t-bone)
• 3 tablespoons avocado or coconut oil
• sea salt
• cumin
• smoked paprika
• ground black pepper
• tumeric
• ground coriander
• ground nutmeg

Heat oil in a large cast iron (or other non-toxic skillet) (I love cooking with cast iron- if you don’t know the ins or outs of cooking w/ cast iron, google it).  Sprinkle both sides of lamb chops generously with sea salt, cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper and turmeric.  Sprinkle less generously with coriander and nutmeg.  

Add chops to oil and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for med-rare.  

Great served with broccoli and black bean pasta with olive oil, butter, and garlic.
