Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Lamb chops
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag and let the lamb chops marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
Preheat your oven's broiler to high. Position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heating element.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the lamb chops on the rack, allowing space between each piece.
Broil the lamb chops for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness (internal temperature of 135°F/57°C). For medium doneness, broil for an additional 1-2 minutes per side.
Remove the lamb chops from the broiler and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring tender and flavorful meat.
Serve the broiled lamb chops with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
