Directions
1. Preheat grill to medium-high (about 450° F).
2. Rub lamb chops all over with Morton® Nature's Seasons® Seasoning Blend, pressing the seasoning into the meat to adhere.
3. In a bowl whisk together the molasses, olive oil, vinegar, honey mustard, mint and fresh herbs. Season to taste with Morton® Nature's Seasons® Seasoning Blend and set aside.
4. On well seasoned grill, grill lamb chops for 3 to 4 minutes per side, basting with reserved mint molasses sauce until lightly charred, glazed and cooked to desired doneness. (An instant read thermometer should register 145° F for medium-rare.)
5. Remove from grill and serve with extra basting sauce.
