Minty Lamb Chops with Charred Dates, Whipped Feta, and Smashed Cukes
If you haven’t given yourself enough time to marinate, marinate your lamb chops at room temperature for an hour, turning from time to time, and that’ll do the trick; marinating outside of the refrigerator accelerates the process and, ultimately, a little bit of marination is better than none at all. If you have a food processor, now’s the time to pull it out. The whipped feta will still be tasty if you make it by hand, but the texture will be decidedly less fluffy.
