Grilled Lamb Chops With Mint Gremolata Recipes

LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Mix the lemon zest, mint and garlic together - quantities are up to you but bear in mind that the garlic is uncooked so adjust amounts according to your personal taste.
• Grill or broil the lamb chops then sprinkle the gremolata over the top before serving.

LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Place chops, olive oil, mint, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large, sealable plastic bag. Toss to coat lamb chops and marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Remove chops, wipe off excess marinade, and season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Broil chops on high until medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make gremolata: Crush garlic, lemon zest, and salt into a paste using the side of a large knife or a mortar and pestle. In a small bowl, stir together garlic paste and mint leaves with olive oil. Transfer chops to serving plate, drizzle with mint gremolata, and garnish with fresh mint.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Preheat a cast-iron grill pan over high heat.
• Prepare the gremolata: In a small food processor, combine mint, lemon zest, lemon juice, pine nuts, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon oil. Pulse until the mixture is roughly chopped and combined. While continuing to pulse, add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. The mixture should remain somewhat coarse.
• Prepare the lamb chops: Coat both sides of the chops with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place chops on grill pan, cooking 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the chops and serve with a dollop of gremolata.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Mix the olive oil, mint, red pepper flakes, and salt to taste in a bowl. Rub the lamb chops all over with the garlic. Transfer a few tablespoons of the mint oil to a small bowl and brush on the chops.
• Grill the chops until charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side. (Press the middle of a chop with your finger: It should be slightly firm with a little give for medium-rare doneness.) Transfer to a platter and brush with some of the remaining mint oil. Sprinkle with mint and serve with more mint oil.

GRILLED AUSTRALIAN LAMB LOIN CHOPS WITH ORANGE-MINT GREMOLATA RE

Steps:

• Place the lamb in a flat glass or ceramic dish. Combine orange juice with the olive oil and pour over the lamb, turning chops to coat well in mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper, cover with plastic, and marinate for 20-30 minutes, turning the chops occasionally during that time.
• To make the gremolata, combine chopped orange zest, mint and garlic in a small bowl and set aside.
• Preheat grill to medium. Pat the lamb dry and grill for about 4 minutes on each side or until cooked as preferred. For medium-rare, the chops should register 130°F on a meat thermometer or be plump and springy when pressed.
• While the lamb is cooking, steam the beans for 1 minute or until tender-crisp. Drain the water and add the olive oil and sliced almonds. Season to taste and shake the pan gently until heated through.
• Serve the lamb with the beans, and spoon the orange-mint gremolata over all or on the side.
