Grilled Lamb Chops Recipe with Tart Cherry Sauce
from: Dara @ www.cookincanuck.com/
Summer entertaining is meant to be effortless. Even the adults should have time to run through sprinklers and have watermelon seed spitting contests (can you even get watermelons with seeds anymore?) rather than sweating over the grill for the entire evening. Bring on a rousing game of Kick the Can or Ghost in the Graveyard and I’m there! We’re all really kids at heart when it comes to warm, long summer nights.
Grilling is where it’s at during the summer. Flip on the gas grill and cook up almost any kind of meat or veggies within minutes. Ask your guests to bring an appetizer, salad or dessert, or choose some great make-ahead recipes. Add drinks and your entertaining duties are complete.
Prep time: 5 mins

4 (3 oz. each) lamb chops

¼ cup fresh orange juice
1 tbsp maple syrup
½ tsp crushed rosemary
