Greek Lamb Chops
Not only are these lamb chops packed with loads of flavor if you leave them in the marinade for some time they come out tasting extremely tender.
Ingredients
- 8 Lamb Chops
- 120 ml Olive Oil
- 120 ml Red Wine Vinegar
- 32 gram Freshly Chopped Mint
- 3 Cloves Garlic Minced
- 1 Teaspoon Salt
- 1 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Instructions
- In a bowl combine together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, freshly chopped mint and minced garlic cloves.
- Now pour this mixture (marinade) into a bag that is resealable and to this add the lamb chops.
- Move the chops around inside the bag to ensure that they are well coated in the marinade and place in the refrigerator.
- Leave them there for 2 hours.
- After removing the lamb chops from the refrigerator you should pre heat the barbecue in readiness for when they will need cooking.
- Before placing the lamb chops on the grill you should season with a little salt and pepper.
- Then after making sure that the grill of the barbecue is about 3 inches above the heat source you should oil it lightly before placing the chops on it.
- You should cook each chop for 5 to 6 minutes on each side.
- It is a good idea to turn them over regularly to prevent them from burning rather than just charring.
- Once the cooking time has elapsed remove from heat and place on a clean plate to rest for a few minutes.
- Then serve them with some pitta bread, yogurt dip and a Greek salad.
