If you're not sure you like Lamb, try barbecuing it as it takes on a whole different flavor. My favorite marinade is very simple, and it is similar in taste to those petite lamb chops you get at the fancy Greek restaurants. Try this - you'll love it!

Time 45m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

5 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tablespoon dried oregano
20 black peppercorns, cracked
1/2 cup olive oil
12 rib lamb chops, trimmed of fat
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small red onion, peeled and diced
1/2 carrot, peeled and diced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1/2 Serrano chili, seeded
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1/2 cup ketchup
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

Combine the garlic, herbs, peppercorns and olive oil. Pour over the lamb and refrigerate overnight.
To make the sauce, heat the canola oil in a medium-size saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot and garlic and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the chili and vinegar and stir 1 minute. Add the ketchup, mustard and honey. Turn the heat to low and simmer 25 minutes. Let cool slightly and puree in a blender. Strain. Thin with a little water, if needed.
Start a charcoal grill. Wipe the marinade off the lamb and grill the meat until medium rare. About a minute before the lamb is done, brush the lamb on both sides with the sauce. Serve with additional sauce.

Tips:

Choose high-quality lamb chops that are well-marbled for the best flavor.
Marinate the lamb chops for at least 30 minutes to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before cooking the lamb chops.
Sear the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes per side to create a nice crust.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the lamb chops for 7-10 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
Let the lamb chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
