These lamb chops are basted in a marinade of coconut aminos, ginger and garlic which gives these chops a lot of flavor with a few simple ingredients. Lamb has a distinct flavor, yet this savory and slightly spicy blend compliments the meat well.
Lamb is a ruminant animal and can likely be purchased through a local farmer’s market or directly from a farmer. Small farms with small flocks can often provide grass-fed lamb. When lamb and other animals are allowed to roam free and are not subject to feedlots, they are generally quite nutritious. Lamb is high in B vitamins, zinc, and selenium. Grass-fed meat has better fat quality and contains more anti-inflammatory Omega-3 fats and fewer inflammatory Omega-6 fats.
Grill up an eggplant salad or grilled sweet potatoes with these lamb chops. Or, serve over cauli-rice or zoodles!
