Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces lamb chops
- 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, prepare the marinade by combining extra virgin olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, minced garlic, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the lamb chops in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are well-coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight, to let the flavors infuse into the meat.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and let them come to room temperature while the grill is heating.
Place the lamb chops on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired for more well-done.
Remove from the grill and let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled lamb chops warm, garnished with additional fresh rosemary if desired.
