Lamb Chops
Ingredients:
- 8 lamb chops (about 1 inch thick)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Instructions:
- Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.
- Marinate the Lamb: Rub the marinade all over the lamb chops. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for more flavor.
- Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a stovetop grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat.
