Juicy grilled lamb chops infused with rosemary, paprika, and garlic for rich, savory flavor and a perfect sear.
# Ingredients:
→ Meat
01 -
500 grams lamb chops, trimmed and pink-firm
→ Marinade
02 -
30 milliliters extra virgin olive oil
03 -
5 grams garlic powder
04 -
5 grams onion powder
05 -
3 grams kosher salt
06 -
2 grams freshly cracked black pepper
07 -
2 grams ground rosemary (optional)
08 -
3 grams paprika (optional, sweet or smoked)
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or set the oven broiler on high. Heat for at least 10 minutes to ensure a suitable searing temperature.
02 -
In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and optional rosemary or paprika until a uniform, fragrant paste forms.
03 -
Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels. Thoroughly coat all sides with the marinade. Allow them to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes to enhance flavor penetration.
04 -
Place the marinated chops on the hot grill or under the broiler. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 6 minutes on one side until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook the opposite side to a medium-rare finish or desired doneness, checking for a blush pink center.
05 -
Transfer the lamb chops to a warm plate and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender and juicy eating experience.
# Notes:
01 -
Marinating for at least 30 minutes improves flavor; for more intense infusion, refrigerate and marinate up to 2 hours.
02 -
Allowing meat to reach room temperature before cooking promotes even grilling.
03 -
Resting meat post-grilling is essential to maintain juiciness.
