GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine rosemary, thyme, garlic and olive oil.
• Arrange lamb chops in a non-reactive dish. Pour marinade over chops and turn to coat. Cover dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30 minutes or up to 6 hours.
• Remove lamb chops from marinade and drain. Let stand 20 minutes or until room temperature.
• Meanwhile, preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Season lamb chops with salt. Arrange lamb chops on grill and cook 4 minutes or until nicely seared. Turn chops over and cook 4 minutes or until seared. Cook, 4 more minutes or until an instant read thermometer inserted horizontally into the thickest part of the lamb chop registers 135˚F for medium-rare and 150˚F for medium. (see Notes)

• Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH FRESH HERBS

Steps:

• Trim any excess fat down to 1/8-inch around each lamb chop and sprinkle both sides with seasoning salt. Let sit for about 30 minutes to come to room temperature.
• Preheat an outdoor grill to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly oil the grate once the grill is hot.
• Place lamb chops on the hot grate and grill for 2 to 3 minutes. Rotate chops, to achieve crisscross grill marks, and continue grilling, 2 to 3 more minutes. Flip the chops and grill for 2 to 3 minutes. Rotate chops and continue grilling an additional 2 minutes, or until they have reached desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
• Remove chops from grill and sprinkle with fresh herbs. Allow to rest under foil, about 10 minutes.
