Marinated Lamb Chops Recipe

Cooking Directions

• STEP 1.In a bowl, combine the herbs, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
• STEP 2.Place the lamb chops in a ziplock bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
• STEP 3.Preheat the grill or a pan over medium-high heat. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
• STEP 4.Grill or pan-sear the lamb chops for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
• STEP 5.Remove the lamb chops from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a tender and juicy result.
• STEP 6.Serve the marinated lamb chops hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. They pair well with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a side salad.

Cooking Tips

• For best results, marinate the lamb chops overnight to allow the flavors to fully develop.
• Make sure to preheat the grill or pan before cooking the lamb chops to ensure even cooking and a nice sear.
• Letting the lamb chops rest after cooking is important to ensure a juicy and tender result. Avoid cutting into them immediately.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover marinated lamb chops can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the lamb chops in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through.
• Serve the reheated lamb chops with fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon juice to refresh the flavors.
