*Reviewed for WHine and Cheese Gangs ZWT6 visit to Greece* So easy and my husband loved this marinade. I could only get lamb loin chops so used eight chops in place of the 4 lamb steaks. Couldn't find my tobasco sauce....so just added extra feshly ground mixed peppers. Otherwise, kept to the recipe as written. My husband cooked the chops on the BBQ and we served them with recipe#378643. Great marinade. Photo also to be posted. Thanks Marra for a great recipe :)

This was still so good even with my little oops (after putting the lamb loin chops into the marinade and coating them well I suddenly realized I had put nutmeg in and not cinnamon, pulled the chops out and put a good dose of cinnamon in and whisked and put the chops back in). Cooked in the frypan about 3 to 4 minutes per side for lovely tender pink lamb chops which were enjoyed by the DM and DS and myself (I used 8 lamb loin chops for the 3 of us - the DM only eats 2). Thank you MarraMamba. made for I Recommend Tag Game and recommended by Kim127.

Great Marinade! My BBQ wasn't working so I broiled the lamb chops. I did not use the tabasco. We don't really like the taste. I marinaded the lamb for five hours. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome!! Loved this lamb, the tabasco was a great touch. For a personal preference I cut the cinnamon to 1/2 tsp and that worked for us. Made for ZWT6 - Team SSaSSy!!

Very, very good! I think the hot sauce in the marinade is the trick. Thank you.
