Instructions
- Place the lamb chops in the barrel of a vacuum marinator. In a small bowl, stir together the 1/2 cup harissa sauce and the olive oil and pour into the marinator. Marinate for 20 minutes according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the chops to a plate and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the lamb chops, turning once, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until done to your liking. Transfer the chops to a warmed plate and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes.
