Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces lamb chops
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 4 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the herb marinade. Finely chop the rosemary and thyme and place them in a small bowl.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl with the herbs.
Add olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the herb and garlic mixture.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they are well combined, forming a thick herb paste.
Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
Rub the herb paste generously over both sides of each lamb chop, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Cover the lamb chops and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour for better flavor absorption.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F to 400°F (approximately 190°C to 205°C).
Once the grill is hot, place the lamb chops on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare or adjust the time for your preferred level of doneness.
Remove the lamb chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the lamb chops hot, garnished with additional fresh rosemary or thyme if desired.
