Mesquite Grilled Middle Eastern Lavender Lamb

Grilled lamb chops garnished with herbs and pomegranate seeds, served with a side of lavender and olive oil on a marble countertop.

After finding this incredable Walnut Oil I searched high and wide for new recipes. I modified this marinade recipe I’ve had for years. It really makes the difference.

  • New Zealand Lamb — Loin, Chops, Leg all work ½-¾ lb per person.
  • ¼ cup Pomegranate Molassis (Available @ most International or Middle Eastern Food Markets)
  • ¼ cup Lemon Juice
  • 2 tbls Lime Juice (Bearrs Limes are best)
  • 2 tsp culinary Lavender (Provance is best)
  • 1 tbls Walnut Oil (must be fresh, La Nogalera brand is GREAT!!)
  • 2 cloves Garlic Cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup White Onion, finely chopped
  • Sea Salt and fresh ground Black Pepper
  • Small blending bowl
  • Marinade dish
  • Mesquite Charcoal
  • In small Bowl whisk together molassis, lemon juice, lime juice, onion, garlic, & lavender.
  • Rub Lamb with walnut oil, and Salt and Pepper all sides.
  • In baking dish lay out lamb and cover with marinade. If it doesn’t cover all the meat be sure to turn it every hour or so.
  • In the refridgerator allow to marinade a minimum of 1-3 hours.
  • BBQ over mesquite charcoal to desired doneness. Turning chops every 5 minutes on medium hot fire. I personally like this recipe done RARE.
  • The citrus juices make a nice light crust on the outside and seal in all the juices. DON’T OVER COOK. 140 f internal temp is MAX.
