Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Rib lamb chops
- 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary leaves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
In a small food processor or mortar and pestle, combine the rosemary, thyme, parsley, and minced garlic. Blend or crush until the herbs are finely chopped and aromatic.
Transfer the herb mixture to a bowl and stir in the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until fully combined to form a marinade.
Pat the rib lamb chops dry with paper towels. Rub the marinade generously onto both sides of each lamb chop, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the lamb chops from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 20 minutes before grilling.
Place the lamb chops on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature is 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
Once cooked, transfer the lamb chops to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve hot with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
