Introduction
This easy lamb chop recipe is perfect for a quick, flavorful meal. With just a few simple ingredients and minimal prep, you’ll have juicy, perfectly grilled lamb chops in no time!
Ingredients
- 6 lamb chops, about 1 inch thick
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Arteflame Grill
- Light the Arteflame grill by placing three oil-soaked paper napkins in the firebox, stacking firewood on top, and igniting. Let it heat for about 20 minutes until the center grate is blazing hot.
Step 2: Season the Lamb Chops
- Combine olive oil, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub this mixture onto both sides of each lamb chop, pressing in the seasoning for better flavor.
Step 3: Grill the Lamb Chops
- Sear the lamb chops on the center grill grate for 1-2 minutes per side, creating a beautiful crust.
- Move to the flat cooktop griddle to finish cooking to your desired doneness. Aim for an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare (remove from heat at 115°F).
Step 4: Serve
- Let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes after removing from the grill. Serve with lemon wedges for a burst of fresh flavor.
Tips
- Don’t skip resting: Letting the lamb rest helps retain its juices for extra tenderness.
- Adjust seasoning to taste: Feel free to add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a little heat or a dash of dried oregano for extra flavor.
