Marinated Lamb Rib Chops

Perfectly browned lamb rib chops marinated in honey & garlic

Cook Time:
15 minutes
Serving Size:
3
Prep Time:
1 hour
Ingredient:
Ribs

Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice; more wedges for serving (optional)

2 tbsp honey

4 cloves garlic, finely chopped garlic

2 tbsp cup fresh thyme or rosemary leaves, plus sprigs (optional)

1/2 tsp. Lemon zest

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 pound lamb rib chops, trimmed (about 8 rib chops)

Directions:


Whisk the marinade ingredients together in a small bowl.

Put the trimmed lamb chops in a container and pour the marinade over them, turning to coat on all sides. Marinate the lamb chops for at least 1 hour at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.

When ready to grill, heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high heat (400°F to 475°F).

Remove the lamb chops from the marinade. Grill the chops to your desired doneness; about 125°F for rare, 135°F for medium rare, and 140°F for medium. (Start with about 3 minutes per side.) Season with more salt to taste, and garnish with lemon wedges, if you like.

Serve with couscous, roasted vegetables, and/or a fresh spring salad.
