Mint Yogurt Dipping Sauce for Lamb Chops by The Purple Mermaid

With Easter almost upon us, we wanted to share our favorite mint yogurt dipping sauce for lamb chops! We serve this sauce every Easter with our Rosemary Marinated Baby Lamb Chops. You're gonna love it!!

Ingredients:

1 cup plain yogurt
1 lime, juiced
3 cloves garlic
1 cup fresh mint leaves, plus extra for garnish
Salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika

Chop fresh mint in a small food processor. Place the yogurt, lime juice and garlic in a blender and puree on high speed until blended. While blending, slowly incorporate the mint and season with salt, cayenne, and cumin. Place a dollop of this great dip on each plate when serving your entree.
