Marinate the Mutton Chops:

- Mix well to create a thick marinade, then coat the mutton chops thoroughly.
- Cover and let the chops marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (for best results, marinate overnight).
Prepare for Cooking:
- Preheat the grill or heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Incorporate a tablespoon of vegetable oil to keep it from sticking.
Cook the Mutton Chops:

- Cook each side for 8-10 minutes or until the chops are tender and cooked through. Check for doneness by cutting into one piece to see that it's no longer pink inside.
Rest and Serve:
