Minted Lamb Chops

Submitted by DrGaellon

"The original recipe called for loin chops, but this will work on any lamb chop; just adjust cooking time appropriately. Serve with mashed potatoes, or peeled boiled new potatoes with butter and parsley. Adapted from a _Bon Appetit_ recipe as published at Epicurious http://tinyurl.com/lcvoq9"
