Grilled Lamb Chops And Peppers Recipes

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• In a food processor fitted with a metal blade add the garlic, rosemary, thyme, cayenne, and salt. Pulse until combined. Pour in olive oil and pulse into a paste. Rub the paste on both sides of the lamb chops and let them marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. Remove from refrigerator and allow the chops to come to room temperature; it will take about 20 minutes.
• Heat a grill pan over high heat until almost smoking, add the chops and sear for about 2 minutes. Flip the chops over and cook for another 3 minutes for medium-rare and 3 1/2 minutes for medium.

SIMPLE GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix together the vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and olive oil in a large resealable bag until the salt has dissolved. Add lamb, toss until coated, and marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Remove lamb from the marinade and leave any onions on that stick to the meat. Discard any remaining marinade. Wrap the exposed ends of the bones with aluminum foil to keep them from burning. Grill to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium. The chops may also be broiled in the oven about 5 minutes per side for medium.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS AND RED PEPPERS WITH ANCHOVY-PARSLEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds.) Place lamb chops on a plate, and season both sides with salt and pepper. Drizzle lightly with oil, and turn to coat.
• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan, and add enough cold water to cover potatoes by about 2 inches. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until potatoes are just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain, and let cool slightly. Halve potatoes, and toss with 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Toss bell peppers with 1 teaspoon oil. Place bell peppers and potatoes on grill. Cook peppers, turning often, until tender and blackened in places, 10 to 12 minutes. Cook potatoes, cut side down, turning after bottoms are golden brown and no longer stick to grill, 8 to 10 minutes total. Transfer vegetables to a platter, and cover with parchment paper and then foil to keep warm.
• Place lamb chops on grill. Cook, flipping once, until an instant-read thermometer registers 130 degrees for medium-rare, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to platter with vegetables, and let rest.
• Combine garlic, chopped anchovies, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet, and place on grill (or over medium heat on cooktop). Cook, stirring, until garlic softens and anchovies sizzle and break down, about 4 minutes. Stir in parsley and lemon juice.
• Arrange lamb, whole anchovy fillets, and vegetables on plates. Drizzle with anchovy-parsley sauce, and garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.

GRILLED SWEET CHILI LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Rinse lamb chops and pat dry. Set aside.
• Whisk lemon juice, white wine, brown sugar, parsley, mint, vinegar, chili powder, chipotle powder, garlic, Worcestershire, liquid smoke, salt, and black pepper together in a large mixing bowl to emulsify. Add lamb chops. Marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook lamb chops on the preheated grill until browned and only slightly pink in the centers, brushing with marinade frequently, about 6 minutes per side. Stand chops upright for the final turn, which heats the bone and cooks the meat internally. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Rest lamb chops for about 3 minutes before serving.
