Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, combine olive oil, parsley, rosemary, and garlic. Season with salt, to taste. Set aside.
- Set a 12-inch oven-safe saute pan over medium-high heat. Season the lamb with 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the black pepper. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of the oil to the saute pan and place the lamb, fat side down, in the pan. Sear the lamb until the fat has rendered and the skin is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook the lamb, turning to cook evenly on each side, about 2 minutes each side. Baste them with the herb and oil mixture. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook until the lamb is rare, about 5 minutes. Alternatively, you can grill the lamb chops.
- Make the balsamic drizzle while the lamb is cooking: Set a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat and add the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the shallots to the pan and sweat until translucent, about 1 minute. Add the garlic to the pan and sweat for 30 seconds. Pour the balsamic vinegar into the pan and bring to a boil. Add the rosemary and allow the balsamic to gently boil and reduce until only about 1/4 cup of balsamic remains, about 10 minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Remove from the heat and swirl the butter into the pan. Remove the rosemary sprigs before using.
- When the lamb is rare, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. To serve, slice each double chop in half, and drizzle with the balsamic reduction.

GRILLED LAMB ON ROSEMARY SKEWERS
Lamb on rosemary skewers has to be one of the oldest recipes in the world. In ancient times, the meat could just as easily have been goat, or something wilder, and fish was no doubt also a candidate. The idea of cutting branches of rosemary and using them as skewers must certainly have occurred to humans soon after they figured out how to build fires. You want rosemary branches with woody stalks, if possible. But if the stalks are too flimsy to poke through the lamb, run a pilot hole through with a skewer, and be sure to grill the lamb and figs separately because they'll cook at different rates. You might throw together a little basting sauce of lemon, garlic and a little more rosemary, but the skewers are just fine without it, and have been for thousands of years.

Steps:
- Start a charcoal or wood fire or heat a gas grill; fire should be moderately hot. Thread lamb and figs onto rosemary branches, three or four chunks or figs per skewer. Do not mix meat and figs on same skewer.
- Brush lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Mix together the lemon juice, garlic and minced rosemary and brush a little of this mixture on lamb and figs.
- Grill, turning skewers as each side browns and taking care to avoid flare-ups; total cooking time should be from 6 to 10 minutes for medium-rare meat, and 4 or 5 minutes for the figs. Meat will become slightly more done after you remove it from grill, so take this into account.

BROILED LAMB CHOPS WITH ROSEMARY-MINT SAUCE

Yield 2 Servings; Can be doubled
Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Chop garlic cloves with salt and pepper on cutting board, then use flat side of knife blade to mash garlic mixture to paste. Scrape paste into small bowl; mix in olive oil. Rub garlic paste on both sides of lamb chops. Let lamb chops stand 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stir 3 tablespoons mint jelly, 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar and rosemary in small saucepan over high heat until mint jelly melts and mixture boils. Reduce heat to medium and cook until sauce thickens to syrup, about 2 minutes.
- Preheat broiler. Broil lamb chops until well browned but still pink inside, about 4 minutes per side. Arrange lamb chops on 2 plates. Spoon sauce over.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of lamb: A rack of lamb is a great option for grilling, as it cooks evenly and stays moist. You can also use lamb chops or steaks.
- Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Grill the lamb over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the lamb while keeping the inside moist.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the lamb: The lamb is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 170 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the lamb rest before carving: Let the lamb rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Grilled rosemary lamb with mint glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The lamb is tender and flavorful, and the mint glaze adds a refreshing touch. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
