Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces lamb chops
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create the marinade.
Place the lamb chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Cover the dish or seal the bag and allow the lamb chops to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.
When ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and let the excess marinade drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the lamb chops on the hot grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer if needed: 145°F for medium-rare and 160°F for medium.
Transfer the cooked lamb chops to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve hot with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh spring salad.
