Do I pat dry or wipe off the loins before grilling? The marinade smells great but is pretty thick. Nervous about throwing them onto the grill with the full marinade on.

This was delicious, we cooked it under the broiler for approximately 8 min on one side until it reached 125 degrees then rested it 10 minutes. My husband is Armenian and this was a nice change for cooking chops. Served it with bulghar pilaf and a melange of frozen peas & artichoke hearts. Yummmm

A major revelation in lamb chop recipes. The yogurt plus fresh mint from our garden was outstanding. I let it marinate for several hours. I loved this one.
