Grilled Lamb Chops with Shiraz Reduction

3/4 c olive oil
1 Tbsp. lime zest
2 Tbsp. lime juice
1 Tbsp. finely chopped garlic
1/4 c finely chopped mint
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/2 tsp salt
8 Australian lamb chops
For the Shiraz reduction:
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 c thinly sliced onions
1 Tbsp. finely chopped garlic
Coarse salt, freshly ground pepper, to taste
3 c Shiraz wine
Combine olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, mint, pepper, and salt in a shallow dish large enough to place the lamb chops in one layer. Coat both sides of the chops in the marinade and leave for 2 hours at room temperature, or up to 24 hours refrigerated.
For the sauce, melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and saute for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until mixture thickens and reduces to approximately 1 cup. The glaze should be the consistency of syrup.
Grill the chops for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Serve 2 chops per person with Shiraz sauce.
