Lamb Chops with Minted Fruit Sauce

Ingredients
2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. cornstarch
1/8 tsp. salt
1 C. orange juice
2 tsp. snipped fresh mint or 1/2 tsp. dried mint, crushed
1/2 C. mixed dried fruit bits
8 lamb chops, cut 1 inch thick
fresh mint (optional)
Directions
1. For sauce, in a small saucepan combine sugar, cornstarch and salt.  Stir in orange juice.  Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly.  Stir in mint.  Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.  Remove from heat.  Remove 1/4 C. sauce and set aside.  Stir fruit into remaining sauce; cover and keep warm.

2. Grill chops on an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 12-15 minutes for medium-rare (145 degrees) or until desired doneness, turning chops once and brushing with the 1/4 C. sauce.  Serve chops with the fruit sauce.  Garnish with fresh mint.
