Preparation

Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. Season the lamb chops with salt, pepper, and cumin, then grill them for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

While the lamb chops are cooking, prepare the glaze. In a bowl, whisk together the juice of the orange, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Set aside.

Cut the kiwano melon in half and scoop out the seeds. Use a spoon to scoop out the flesh of the melon and dice it into small pieces. Crumble the blue cheese and mix it with the diced kiwano melon.

Once the lamb chops are done, brush them with the orange balsamic glaze and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve the lamb chops topped with the kiwano melon and blue cheese mixture.

Tips

For an extra punch of flavor, sprinkle some chopped fresh mint over the top of the dish before serving. The refreshing mint will complement the richness of the lamb and the tanginess of the kiwano melon and blue cheese.
