Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces lamb chops
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 whole lemon, zested
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, white wine, olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and lemon zest until well combined.
Place the lamb chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the lamb chops, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Remove the lamb chops from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the lamb chops for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired level of doneness is reached. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature (125°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium).
Allow the lamb chops to rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain their juices.
Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes, and enjoy!
