Lemon Garlic Grilled Lamb Rib Chops
These grilled lamb rib chops are loaded with wonderful lemon, garlic, and rosemary flavor and are a warm weather favorite!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 8-10 lamb rib chops
- 2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal Kosher salt
For the marinade
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon minced rosemary leaves
- 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal Kosher salt plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- If required, cut the rack of lamb into individual rib chops. Season the chops with kosher salt on both sides.
- Combine all of the marinade ingredients into a mixing bowl and whisk until combined.
- Place the rib chops into a sealable bag and pour half of the marinade on to them. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight. Save the other half of the marinade to use as a serving sauce.
- Remove the lamb chops from the fridge at least 45 minutes before grilling.
- Prepare a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat. Grill the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temp of 130-135f.
- Serve the chops immediately with the reserved 1/2 cup of serving sauce. Enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled. Costco has the best price for Frenched lamb racks.
- Half of the marinade is to be saved "before touching the meat" and can be used as a serving sauce.
- Rib chops are best eaten right away after grilling. Leftovers can be saved for up to 3 days in the fridge.
