About the dish:
Greek Lamb Chops are a delicious and flavorful dish that showcases the rich taste of lamb combined with traditional Greek herbs and spices. Greek Lamb Chops are known for their succulent and juicy texture with a savory and herb-infused flavor. The combination of the garlic, lemon juice, and Mediterranean herbs like oregano, thyme, and rosemary provides a delightful taste that perfectly complements the natural richness of the lamb meat. These tender and flavorful lamb chops are a popular choice for Greek-inspired meals and are often served with roasted potatoes, Greek salad, or tzatziki sauce. Here's a recipe to make Greek Lamb Chops:
Recipe:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
- Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each chop is well coated. Let the chops marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
- Place the lamb chops on the preheated grill or grill pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your desired doneness.
- Once cooked to your preference, remove the lamb chops from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the Greek Lamb Chops hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired, and accompanied by lemon wedges for squeezing over the meat.
