Spanish term or phrase: chuletillas hechas al rescoldo

El cordero, presente en casi toda La Mancha, también se encuentra en tierras conquenses, en recetas como las chuletillas hechas al rescoldo con todo su sabor o los zarajos, tripas de cordero lechal trenzadas sobre soportes de sarmiento y asadas al horno.

tiny cutlets cooked over glowing embers

Explanation:
Chops are too big for cordero lechal.
Zarajos, yuk. Was wondering when they were going to appear!

The sarmientos are vine clippings or prunings (often made up into bundles which are great for real barbecues, also splendid kindling), but here they can be any old thinnish stick. Vine twig sounds a bit flimsy.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Yes "cutlets" seems best. I have just been reading about "zarajos" - not really my thing but apparently quite a delicacy!

47 mins confidence:

ember grilled cutlets

Explanation:
"Cutlet" might be more appropriate than "chop", but it doesn't necessarily have to be tiny, for this first part of the sentence refers to a "lamb". I'd also choose "grilled" instead of "barbecued", I've had too many BBQ's cooked on some kind of an oven dish with electricity or gas.
