INGREDIENTS

1/4 CUP greek yogurt

3 tbsp Za’atar spice divided

6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil divided

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp black pepper

1 pack Ancient Grain Flatout Foldit’s

1/4 cup Italian seasoning

2 racks American Lamb chops

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

In a small bowl combine the greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of Za’atar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix and set aside.

Cut the Flatout Foldit’s in the middle and then cut each side into quarters.

Place them on a baking tray and drizzle with one tbsp of olive oil and the remaining 1 tbsp of Za’atar.

Bake in the oven for about 5-7 minutes.

Rub the lamb with the remaining 3 tbs of olive oil and then coat with the Italian seasoning.

Heat a large pan big enough to hold at least one rack of lamb and warm on high heat.

Place each rack into the pan and sear on each side for a few minutes until brown. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees.

Transfer the lamb to a baking tray and roast in the oven for about 18-20 for med-rare or if you prefer medium, 25-30 minutes.

Once the lamb has cooked, let it rest covered with foil before slicing into chops and serving with the Flatout Foldit chips and greek yogurt dip.
