Ingredients
- 8 pieces lamb chops
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Place the lamb chops in a large bowl or shallow dish.
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Step 3
Pour the marinade over the lamb chops, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for deeper flavor).
Step 4
Remove the lamb chops from the refrigerator 20 minutes prior to cooking to let them come to room temperature.
Step 5
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 6
Sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium.
Step 7
Remove the lamb chops from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes. Enjoy George's Famous Lamb Chops!
