Ingredients
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary leaves
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- Coarse salt
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 6 small lamb chops
Method
- In a food processor, combine the garlic, rosemary, thyme, cayenne pepper, and coarse salt. Pulse until finely chopped. Add the olive oil and pulse again until the mixture forms a paste.
- Rub the garlic and herb mixture all over the lamb chops. Place the chops in the refrigerator and marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for more intense flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the lamb chops for about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer them more well-done.
- Remove the lamb chops from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your perfectly grilled lamb chops with your favorite sides.
These lamb chops pair wonderfully with roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or even a creamy potato dish.
