Lamb Chops with Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce

TOTAL TIME:  25 MIN  SERVINGS:  4

Ingredients 
 2 large garlic cloves 
 1/3 cup cilantro leaves 
 1/3 cup unsalted natural peanut butter 
 2 tablespoons peanut oil 
 2 tablespoons ketchup 
 1 tablespoon Thai green curry paste 
 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice 
 1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce 
 1 tablespoon soy sauce 
 1 teaspoon sugar 
 Eight 1-inch-thick loin lamb chops (about 2 pounds) 

Directions 
1. In a food processor, pulse the garlic and cilantro until finely chopped. 
Add all of the remaining ingredients except the lamb; pulse until a paste forms. 
Spread 1/4 cup of the paste over the lamb chops. 
2. In a saucepan, whisk remaining paste with 1/3 cup of water. 
Warm the sauce over low heat; it should be pourable. 
3. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Grill the chops over a medium-high fire 
for 4 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in 
the thickest part of a chop registers 125° to 130° for medium rare. 
Transfer the chops to a platter. Spoon some warm peanut sauce over the lamb chops 
and serve, passing the extra sauce on the side.
