Author Notes: This recipe was given to me from a very old and very dear friend. It is quite simple, succinct and perfectly delicious.
In regards to the lamb - If you're willing to spend the extra money, the American really are quite superior - better meat/better fat. - F for Food

Serves 4

12-16 cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon cardamom
1/3 cup FRESH lime juice
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
16 lamb chops

In the food processor, drop garlic, add cumin, cardamom, lime juice, salt, pepper and oil. Pour into a large bag or container to marinate (a couple of hours or up to 2 days).
On the grill is a must, and with a medium flame they'll be done in about 2 minutes per side. Perhaps a bit more but rarer is better.
