Inspired by the legendary goat chops at a famous Houston restaurant (Agha’s), this recipe captures the essence of authentic south asian tandoori flavors. While originally crafted to mimic the restaurant's signature dish, these chops work perfectly with both goat and lamb, bringing restaurant-quality taste to your home grill.
