Preparation
- In a food processor, combine the pistachios, fresh mint, shallots, garlic, lemon juice, capers, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt. Pulse until coarsely chopped.
- Gradually drizzle in the olive oil while pulsing until the butter reaches a smooth consistency. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Generously season the lamb loin chops with salt and black pepper, ensuring to coat both sides evenly.
- Let the seasoned chops rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, approximately 400°F to 450°F.
- Carefully place the seasoned lamb chops on the grill, cooking for 2–3 minutes on each side.
- For medium-rare doneness, aim for an internal temperature of 125°F before removing from the grill.
- Let the grilled lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve the lamb chops warm, generously topped with the minty pistachio butter.
