perfectly good chop — but these Grilled Lamb Tacos are worth it.

Test Kitchen Tip
With just a splash of oil and vinegar,
left-over lentil salsa makes a great salad.
Instructions
Cook lentils in water until tender,
about 20 minutes, adding corn
during the last minute of cooking;
drain well.
Combine lentil mixture, tomatoes,
queso fresco, onion, cilantro, zest,
and lime juice; season salsa with
salt and pepper.
Preheat grill to medium-high.
Brush grill grate with oil.
Cut lamb meat from the bones;
discard bones. Season lamb with
Tajin seasoning.
Grill lamb until browned, about
5 minutes per side for medium-rare;
transfer to a plate and let rest
5 minutes. Cut lamb into ¼-inch-thick
slices. Warm tortillas on the
grill, 15–30 seconds.
Fill tortillas with lamb; top with
lentil salsa.
