Mandarin Orange Oriental Sauce Lamb Chops with Red Pepper Pasta

I love the combination of a smokey grilled flavor with sweet, salty, and spicy, and this recipe has all that in one! The mandarin orange lamb chops with the pasta is exquisite! Created for the 2013 World Food Championships, I wanted to take a twist on pasta, the ‘themed’ ingredient for the category I competed in {Recipe}, that didn’t include typically what you’d expect in a pasta ‘sauce’.

The culinary artistry that went into developing this recipe took some time even though it appears that the ingredients are somewhat typical~~hope you enjoy as much as my taste testers did~~while I didn’t used this recipe at the WFC it very well could be modified into something else for another food competition!
