Ingredients

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup Tamarindo peeled and seeded
  • 1/2 cup Orange Juice
  • 1/3 cup Light Molasses
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Red Pepper Flakes crushed
  • 3 tablespoons Lime Juice

Apricot Relish

  • 2 cups Dried Apricots chopped
  • 6 tablespoons Lemon Juice

  • 2 tablespoons Golden Brown Sugar packed
  • 2 tablespoons Coriander Seeds cracked
  • 2 pounds Lamb Chops or Rack of Lamb

Directions

Glaze

Bring first 4 ingredients to boil in small saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until reduced to 1 cup, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in lime juice.

Apricot Relish

Mix apricots and next 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Season relish to taste with salt and pepper. (Glaze and relish can be made 1 day ahead; cover separately and chill. Bring relish to room temperature. Stir glaze over medium heat until heated through.)

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Sprinkle chops or rack with salt and pepper. Grill lamb to desired doneness, turning once and basting with glaze during last minute of grilling, about 2 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer skewers to platter. Serve with relish.
