Herb Lamb Loin Chops

Loin chops are lean and tender but small so serve two per person. The delicate marinade allows the flavor of the lamb to come through. If you have fresh herbs use one tablespoon each in place of the dry herbs. Serve with crusty roast potatoes and sauteed greens such as spinach or kale.

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Method

In a large resealing plastic bag combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, onion, parsley, thyme, oregano and pepper. Add the lamb chops and allow to marinate at room temperature for one hour.

Pat chops dry with a paper towel and grill lamb chops on the prepared grill 5 minutes per side, to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F . To broil, place chops on a foil-lined broiler pan and broil 6 inches from the heat for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side. Allow chops to rest 3 minutes before serving.
