How to Make Grilled Lamb Chops With Asian Butter Sauce

  1. In a large glass baking dish, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  2. Add the rack of lamb (approximately 2 pounds) to the marinade.
  3. Turn the lamb to ensure it's fully coated.
  4. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  5. Preheat your barbecue grill to medium-high heat.
  6. Grill the lamb for approximately 25 minutes for medium-rare, turning occasionally, until desired doneness is reached. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches your preferred internal temperature.
  7. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring 1 cup chicken stock, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the mixture reduces to 3/4 cup (approximately 12 minutes).
  8. Reduce heat to low.
  9. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped green onions and 4 tablespoons butter until the butter is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  10. Once the lamb is cooked, remove from grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes before cutting.
  11. Cut the lamb rack between the ribs to separate into individual chops.
  12. Place the lamb chops on serving plates and spoon the Asian butter sauce generously over the top.
