Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a food processor, pulse the onion and garlic until minced. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the onion and garlic and cook over moderate heat until softened, about (7 minutes).
  2. Add cinnamon, ginger and cayenne and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce and honey and simmer over low heat until the sauce thickens slightly (about 5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering. Add 4 of the lamb chops and cook over moderate heat, turning once, until browned and almost cooked through (about 8 minutes); keep warm. Repeat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 4 lamb chops.
  4. Pour off the fat from the skillet. Add tomato sauce and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the lamb chops and simmer until cooked through (about 2 minutes). Transfer the lamb to plates, spoon the tomato sauce on top and garnish with the cilantro.
