INSTRUCTIONS
To prepare the marinated lamb chops, follow these steps:
- In a large bowl, combine ½ cup (100g) gochujang paste, 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, 3 tablespoons dark soy sauce, 2 tablespoons mirin, 2 teaspoons minced ginger, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Mix well.
- Add 12 lamb chops to the bowl and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Ensure all the chops are evenly coated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to 12 hours for maximum flavor. If you’re short on time, marinating for 30-45 minutes will still yield good results.
- Remove the marinated lamb chops from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Fry the lamb chops in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown. Depending on the size of the skillet, you may need to cook the chops in two batches. Keep the first batch warm in a low oven if necessary.
- Once cooked, sprinkle the lamb chops with 1 tablespoon of black and white mixed sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon of shichimi togarashi, and 4 chopped scallions (scallions).
- Serve the marinated lamb chops with a side of your choice, such as a big green salad.
- Enjoy your deliciously flavored lamb chops!
