Ingredients:
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp coriander
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon, allspice and salt
- 1/4 tsp black and white peppers and ginger
- pinch saffron threads
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 cup pure honey
- 3 to 4 fresh Medjool dates, chopped

Directions:
In a large pan, saute onions in olive oil. Stir in spices, water, honey and chopped dates. Cover and bring to a boil. When mixture comes to a boil, add lamb chops and let cook, uncovered, until lamb is done, about 30 to 45 minutes.
