The longest part of the process it marinading them but after that, they’re on the table in 10 minutes. This recipe works for 8 chops that are 1 inch in thickness, perfect for an impromptu dinner party!
Recipe
- Start by marinading the lamb chops to increase the flavor.
- Mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 6 cloves of crushed garlic, 1 tablespoon each of oregano, rosemary, mint, and parsley, and then half a teaspoon of black pepper.
- Rub it over both sides of the chops and let it marinate for 1 hour in the fridge up to 24 hours.
- Heat up a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, and melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Before you put the chops in, season on each side generously. You don’t want to do this too early on or the salt will draw out all the moisture.
- Cook each of the chops for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the inside reaches 145 F, which is medium rare.
- While the chops are cooking, baste them, or pour over, the melted butter and olive oil to get them super flavorful all over.
- Serve and enjoy!
