Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Add 4 lamb chops and rub marinade evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Bring 1 1/4 cups boiling water to a heatproof bowl with 1 cup couscous. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, then stir in 1/2 cup diced cucumber, 2 tbsp chopped fresh mint, and 2 tbsp lemon juice.
  3. Step 3: Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove lamb chops from marinade and grill for 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Rest lamb for 5 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup pomegranate juice and 2 tbsp honey in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  5. Step 5: Plate lamb chops with couscous salad and drizzle pomegranate glaze generously over the lamb.
