Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 rack of lamb (8 lamb chops)
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Divide the rack of lamb into individual lamb chops.
  2. Combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, kosher salt, and black pepper in a small bowl to make the marinade.
  3. Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning each chop to coat thoroughly.
  4. Cover and refrigerate the lamb chops for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  5. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot.
  6. Grill the lamb chops for about 3 minutes on each side, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  7. Remove the chops from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
  8. Enjoy your lamb chops plain or with a mint apple sauce as a fresh alternative to mint jelly.

Notes

  • Store any leftover lamb chops in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. For a tasty accompaniment, try serving these chops with mint apple sauce instead of traditional mint jelly.
