Set aside half the sauce (in an airtight container in the fridge) to top the finished dish.<\/p>\n<p>Pat the lamb dry with paper towels and place in the bowl with the yogurt sauce, flipping them over with tongs to coat. Cover the bowl and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.<\/p>\n<p>When you are ready to cook, set an oven rack in the center position and preheat the oven to 400\u00b0F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.<\/p>\n<p>Place the asparagus, radishes, and lemon together on the prepared pan. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with \u00bd teaspoon of the kosher salt. Toss to coat and spread evenly over the pan.<\/p>\n<p>Using tongs, lift the lamb chops from their marinade and let any excess drip off. Blot dry with paper towels and season on both sides with the remaining \u00bd teaspoon kosher salt and pepper. Evenly space the chops on the sheet pan, wedging them between the vegetables and lemons. Discard the marinade.<\/p>\n<p>Roast for 8 to 10 minutes, then flip the chops and scatter the peas over the pan. Cook for 3 minutes longer for rare or 5 minutes for medium-rare. (If using an instant-read thermometer, the lamb chops are done when the internal temperature reaches 120\u00b0F. for rare and 125\u00b0F for medium-rare.)<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, stir the chopped mint into the reserved yogurt sauce. Serve the lamb and vegetables topped with a dollop of sauce. Sprinkle with mint leaves and flaky salt (if using), and more pepper, if you like.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n<p class=\"author-credit\">Excerpted from The Brain Health Kitchen by Annie Fenn (Artisan Books).
