Garlic & Rosemary Grilled Lamb Chops

Ingredients

• 2 pounds lamb loin or rib chops (thick cut)
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1¼ teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• zest of 1 lemon
• ¼ cup olive oil

Instructions

1. Combine the garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper, lemon zest and olive oil in a measuring cup.
2. Pour the marinade over the lamb chops, making sure to flip them over to cover them completely. Cover and marinate the chops in the fridge for as little as 1 hour, or as long as overnight.
3. Heat your grill to medium-high heat, then sear the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes, on each side. Lower the heat to medium then cook them for 5-6 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 150 degrees F.
4. Allow the lamb chops to rest on a plate covered with alumnium foil for 5 minutes before serving.
