Time 30m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 to 8 loin lamb chops
4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or cast-iron grill pan over high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the fire so that one side of the grill has more coals than the other - a "hot" side. If using a grill pan, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Rub the lamb chops with the garlic and season aggressively with salt and pepper. If grilling, place on the hot side for 2 minutes per side. Move the chops to the cooler side of the grill to cook through, an additional 6 to 7 minutes. If using a grill pan, grill one side for 2 minutes to sear, then turn over the chops and place the pan in the oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the grill or oven and allow to sit 5 minutes before serving.

SIMPLE GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

This simple treatment for lamb chops makes for a terrific dinner. Prep time includes marinating time, although you don't have to marinate it that long; even 30 minutes is good.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 4h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 lamb loin chops

Steps:

  • About 4 hours before you wish to serve dinner, prepare marinade: in a mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, fresh herbs and garlic, oil, salt and pepper.
  • Pour this mixture into a large zip-lock freezer bag, add lamb chops, squeeze out all the air and seal; place in a glass dish and refrigerate, turning it over at least once; let marinate for three to four hours.
  • Alternatively, if you don't have a zip-lock bag, marinate lamb chops in a covered glass dish.
  • Shortly before you wish to serve dinner, grease grill rack and preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  • Reserve marinade and place chops on preheated greased grill and cook, with a closed lid, for about 15 minutes for medium-rare-- baste with reserved marinade and turn once during cooking.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are bright red in color with a firm texture. Avoid chops that are dull in color or have any signs of spoilage.
  • Marinate the lamb chops before grilling: Marinating the chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize them and add flavor. You can also use a commercial marinade, but be sure to read the label carefully to make sure it doesn't contain any unwanted ingredients.
  • Grill the lamb chops over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning on the outside while still cooking them through on the inside. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chops; they are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Let the lamb chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.

Conclusion:

Grilled lamb chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can ensure that your grilled lamb chops are cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. So fire up your grill and give this recipe a try!
