You’ve heard of lamb chops, and maybe even tasted them at a dinner party or in a restaurant, but have you ever tried to cook them yourself? If not, here’s a great easy to follow recipe that turns out perfect for me every single time.

Roast Lamb Chops

12 single baby rib lamb chops, frenched (2 to 2 1/2 pounds)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
5 minced garlic cloves
2 Tablespoons minced fresh rosemary
2 Tablespoons minced fresh mint
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions:

Arrange lamb chops in a 9X 13″ baking dish. Combine, garlic, oil, mint, rosemary, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a bowl to create sauce. Cover both sides of lamb chops with sauce. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours. When finished marinating, preheat oven broiler and place lamb chops on broiler pan. Cook until brown on the outside, approximately 3 minutes, flip and cook approximately 3 additional minutes.

Tip: Goes great with Minted Cucumber Relish Recipe. You can alternatively marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes in place of the 4 hours in refrigerator. You can also grill instead of broiling or roasting.
