Directions:
1. Process first 5 ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. 2. Place lamb chops in a large shallow dish or heavy-duty zip-top plastic bags. Pour oil mixture evenly over chops. Cover or seal, and chill 2 hours, turning occasionally. 3. Soak wood chips in water 30 minutes. 4. Remove chops from marinade, discarding marinade. Sprinkle chops evenly with salt and pepper. 5. Prepare a fire by piling charcoal and wood chips in grill. Place food rack on grill.
