This recipe is being posted for ZWT II & the source is fooddownunder.com. I picked it because Iceland is "rich" in wonderful lamb, it used ingredients I could obtain easily & we love both the flavor & ease of grilling our lamb. (Passive time includes 15 minutes to marinate)

Tips:

Choose high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are evenly marbled with fat and have a deep red color. Avoid chops that are pale or have a lot of gristle.
Marinate the lamb chops before cooking: Marinating the chops in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple olive oil and herb marinade, a yogurt-based marinade, or a more complex marinade with spices and citrus.
Cook the lamb chops over high heat: Lamb chops should be cooked over high heat to quickly sear the outside and prevent them from becoming overcooked. You can cook the chops on a grill, in a skillet, or under a broiler.
Let the lamb chops rest before serving: After cooking, let the lamb chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and juicy.
