HOW TO COOK LAMB CHOPS IN THE OVEN



How To Cook Lamb Chops In The Oven image

The complete guide for how to cook lamb chops in the oven! This lamb chop recipe (+ simple marinade!) is the best way to make perfect baked lamb chops at home.

Provided by Maya Krampf

Categories     Main Course

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tbsp Olive oil ((divided into 5 tbsp and 1 tbsp))
1 tbsp Lemon juice
6 cloves Garlic ((crushed))
1 tbsp Fresh rosemary ((chopped))
1 tbsp Fresh thyme
1 tsp Dried oregano
2 tsp Sea salt
1/2 tsp Black pepper
8 large Lamb chops ((~3.5 pounds))

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of olive oil with the remaining lamb chop marinade ingredients: lemon juice, crushed garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the lamb chops. Turn them to coat in marinade and press the marinade into the chops. Cover with plastic and marinate at room temperature for 30-60 minutes. (Alternatively, marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight, but let lamb chops sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.)
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large cast iron grill pan over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes, until screaming hot and shimmering. Add the lamb chops in a single layer, fat side down. Sear for 2 minutes, until browned on the bottom, then flip and sear for 2 more minutes until browned on the other side. If making 8 lamb chops as written, you'll need to do a batch of 4 on the stovetop and then the oven (below), then repeat stovetop and oven with the remaining 4.
  • Immediately transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast lamb chops for about 2-5 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, or about 5-8 minutes for medium-well to well done. (However, cooking above medium is not recommended, as it may taste gamey.)
  • Remove lamb chops from the oven and transfer to a plate (do not let them sit in the pan or they will overcook).
  • Repeat the sear and oven combination with the remaining lamb chops. (It's best to wipe out the pan in between batches.)
  • Tent with foil and rest for 5 minutes per serving. (Temperature will rise an additional 5-10 degrees.)

OVEN-ROASTED LAMB CHOPS



Oven-Roasted Lamb Chops image

Never having lamb before I didn't "think" I liked lamb. When your MIL is 100% Greek you know you will have to fix it for her son! I asked her to show me one night and wrote it down. These oven lamb chops are so easy and tender, perfect for when you don't have a crowd to feed!

Provided by Lucky Noodles

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 (4 ounce) lamb chops
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 clove garlic, minced
½ tablespoon crushed fresh rosemary leaves
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup mint jelly

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Cut away excess fat from the lamb chops (some fat does add flavor). Coat each chop lightly in olive oil. Dust lamb chops with garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Place lamb chops in a cast iron skillet.
  • Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium-well doneness.
  • Remove from the oven and cover tightly with foil; let rest for 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with mint jelly on the side,

Tips:

  • Choosing the right lamb chops: Look for lamb chops that are at least 1 inch thick, with a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Preparing the lamb chops: Trim any excess fat from the lamb chops, but leave a small amount of fat around the edges. This will help to keep the chops moist and flavorful.
  • Seasoning the lamb chops: Season the lamb chops generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. You can also use a pre-made lamb chop seasoning blend.
  • Cooking the lamb chops: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the lamb chops on a baking sheet and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Letting the lamb chops rest: Once the lamb chops are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, these Buttery Baked Lamb Chops are sure to please. With their tender, juicy meat and flavorful crust, they're a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will love. So next time you're in the mood for lamb, give this recipe a try.
