Grilled Lamb Chops

The easiest way to prepare flavorful, juicy lamb chops is on the grill! If you don’t want to fire up the grill, a cast-iron grill pan, regular cast iron pan or oven-safe frying pan will also work.

Ingredients

  • 6-8
    lamb loin chops
  • 4
    cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat grill or cast-iron grill pan over high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the fire so that one side of the grill has more coals than the other – a “hot” side. If using a grill pan, heat the oven to 400 F.

  2. 2

    Rub the lamb chops with garlic and season liberally with salt and pepper. If grilling, place on the hot side for 2 minutes per side. Move the chops to the cooler side of the grill to cook through, an additional 6 to 7 minutes. If using a grill pan, grill one side for 2 minutes to sear, then turn over the chops and place the pan in the oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the grill or oven and allow to sit 5 minutes before serving.
