This quick grill dish makes it easy to come home after work and eat well. The secret is in the simple sauce all seasoned up with the classic flavor partners that lamb loves the most—rosemary and Dijon mustard.

Cooks' Note

It’s not unusual for the fat cooking off the edges of lamb chops to make the grill flare up. If this happens, cover the grill to choke off all the air. In a few seconds the flames will die down and you can uncover the grill again.
