Fabulous Grilled Lamb Chop Recipe Directions

1. Combine the olive oil, garlic, black pepper, red pepper flakes, rosemary, oregano, and thyme in a large baking dish to create a marinade sauce.

2. Mix in the lamb chops and toss well until evenly and thoroughly coated.

3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (if you choose, you may marinate the lamb chops overnight).

4. Ignite your grill and grease the grate to prevent the meat from sticking (this dish may also be prepared in a frying pan or broiler if a grill is not available).

5. Remove the chops from the marinade and salt both sides generously

6. Cook about 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare (the actual cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the meat).

7. Scatter the lamb chops with the fresh parsley and mint

8. Let sit for about 5 minutes before serving.

Round out this fabulous entrée with a freshly tossed garden salad or freshly picked garden vegetables. Also, as a secret flavor enhancer, some suggest that these loin lamb chops are even better when paired with an orange mint sauce. With a combination like that it’s hard to see why grilled lamb chops aren’t a more popular type of barbeque dish.

Grilling lamb chops does not have to be a difficult or unpleasant undertaking. In fact, you can be sure that adding this lamb chop recipe to your grilling repertoire will go a long way to improving your chef’s image.
