Rosemary and Garlic Lamb Chops
AI-written · not yet kitchen-tested
Thicker chops need a gentler zone after searing. Chop rosemary and garlic finely so larger pieces do not burn on the surface.

Ingredients
- 900 g (2 lb) lamb chops, about 3/4 inch thick
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 clove garlic
- 2 sprig rosemary
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Method
- Finely chop the rosemary and grate the garlic. Mix with oil, salt and pepper, coat the chops and marinate covered in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Preheat a gas grill to about 400 °F (200 °C) with direct and unlit indirect zones. Scrape excess oil from the chops.
- Brown directly for about 3 minutes per side. Move indirectly immediately if dripping fat causes flames.
- Close the lid and cook indirectly for another 6 to 8 minutes. Measure at least 158 °F (70 °C) for 2 minutes in the thickest meat beside the bone, without the probe touching bone.
Tip: Cooking times are untested estimates. Check earlier for thinner pieces or changing grill heat, and cook longer as needed.
