Ingredients

  • salt
  • 8 lamb chops
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
Container: Grill or large skillet
Directions
PREP

COOK

  • Trim excess fat from chops. Make a horizontal slit in the side of each one, as large as possible without cutting all the way through.
  • Toast the sliced almonds over medium heat in a dry skillet, stirring constantly, until they just begin to brown - about 3 - 4 minutes. This step isn't essential, but toasting increases the nutty flavor.
  • Mash together in a small bowl the minced garlic, chopped marjoram and preserved lemon (or lemon zest plus 1/2 teaspoon salt). Add the toasted nuts and mix in well. Divide this mixture among the chops and spread it into the pockets you've cut.
  • Lightly salt the chops and grill or pan-broil to the desired degree of doneness (3 - 5 minutes per side). Make a small cut into the meat to check for doneness. The flavor will be best if not cooked past medium (pink center).
This will work best with loin or rib chops, at least 1 inch thick.
