Grilled Charmoula Lamb ChopsROMULO YANES

This recipe makes more charmoula — a Moroccan herb and spice paste — than you'll need. You can use the leftover to rub on chicken or salmon before grilling.

Active time: 30 min Start to finish: 1 hr

Cooks' notes:

• If you aren't able to grill outdoors, chops can be cooked in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderate heat. • Charmoula keeps, its surface covered with plastic wrap, 1 week. It will lose its bright green color after a couple of days.
