Ingredients
- 4-8 lamb chops 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch thick
- 1-2 Tablespoons lamb seasoning
- Vegetable oil for grilling
Instructions
- Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels, then discard the paper towels.
- Rub the lamb chops with the lamb seasoning, ensuring that each chop is covered on both sides in a good layer of spices.
- If you are making these ahead of time, place the chops into a lidded container and let marinate in the refrigerator overnight. These are the best when you let the spices marinate into the meat for at least a day.
- When ready to cook, remove the lamb from the refrigerator and leave at room temperature while you heat the grill.
- Preheat the grill. When the grill is hot, brush and oil the grill.
- Place the chops on the hot grill.
- Move the chops out of the flame if there is a flare up at any time!
- Grill the chops for 3-5 minutes per side, and using an instant read thermometer aim for 125°F for rare, 135°F medium-rare, and 140°F for medium.
- Remove the chops from the grill when done to your desired temperature and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
