    Method

    1. Rub the lamb chops all over with 1 tbsp olive oil. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1 tbsp oil with the ras el hanout, lemon zest and juice, and garlic.
    2. Preheat a griddle pan over a high heat until smoking. Add the lamb chops, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 3-4 mins on each side for pink meat in the middle.
    3. One side at a time, brush the ras el hanout oil over the chops and cook for 30 secs more on each side until lightly charred. Remove the chops to a plate, cover with foil and leave to rest for 5 mins. Scatter over the parsley before serving.
