Servings: persons

1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup tomato paste
4 teaspoons finely grated ginger
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (or as much hot sauce as you like. I like it mild, so you may want more) (recommended: Sriracha)
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
4 teaspoons vegetable or canola oil
8 (1 1/4-inch thick) lamb loin chops

1
Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
2
Toast the coriander and fennel seeds in small pan over a medium flame, shaking every 30 seconds so they don't burn.
3
Once they've given off a lovely aroma and have turned a darker tone, remove from the hot pan and cool completely on a plate.
4
Then throw them into your spice grinder and grind to a fine powder.
5
Mix the spices with the yogurt, tomato paste, ginger, garlic, hot sauce, brown sugar, salt, a healthy few grinds of freshly ground black pepper, apple cider vinegar, and oil.
6
Taste and season according to your palate.
7
Cover each chop with the marinade, rubbing it into the meat and fat.
8
You can marinate overnight, a few hours, or just 30 minutes.
9
I've done all three and it tastes great every way.
10
Bake the chops in a 9- by 13-inch baking dish until the lamb is cooked to medium-rare, or to your liking, 15 to 20 minutes.
11
Remove from the oven and allow to rest, tented with foil, for about 5 minutes before serving.
