Ingredients
Scale
- 4 lamb chops (rib or loin)
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Create the Marinade – In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, rosemary, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Marinate the Lamb Chops – Place lamb chops in a zip-top bag or bowl. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for deeper flavor).
- Preheat Your Grill – Heat the grill to medium-high (375°F/190°C).
- Grill the Lamb Chops – Remove from the marinade and shake off excess liquid. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust for desired doneness).
- Rest Before Serving – Let the grilled lamb chops rest, covered with foil, for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Experiment with herbs like thyme or add balsamic vinegar for a unique twist.
- Ensure lamb chops are at room temperature before grilling to achieve even cooking.
