Adapted from "Atkins: The Complete Cookbook", 2004, pg. 116.

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 350° F.

Combine all ingredients except olive oil and lamb chops.

Salt both sides of lamp chops. Sprinkle one side of chops with the spice mixture and pat down so mixture doesn't flake off. Repeat with second side.

Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat; add 2 chops and cook 1-1/2 minutes per side, just until curry turns deep brown. Transfer to broiler pan. Repeat browning process with the remaining 6 chops.

Bake chops 15-20 minutes in oven, until just pink in center or to desired doneness.
