Coriander-Thyme Lamb Chops with Yogurt Sauce
Lamb loin chops look like miniature T-bone steaks and are much leaner than lamb shoulder chops. If you can't find them, you can substitute 2 (4-ounce) beef tenderloin steaks.

Simple to prepare. I did marinate longer, about 90 minutes. We found the yogurt sauce was a bit too much; would probably halve that next time. Served with grilled asparagus and some roasted garlic couscous.
My husband and I are lamb fans and eat lamb chops regularly so when a new recipe comes up, we are game to give it a try. The chops were easy and made up very similar to what we normally do, but it was the yogurt sauce that gave it a nice change of pace. It is actually the same yogurt sauce you get with a gyro, but to have it with these lamb chops it was a different (and healthier) way to get that gyro flavor. My only minor complaint is it makes up twice as much yogurt sauce than we found we needed.
