Steps:
- Add 2-4 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary, and 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice to a bowl. Whisk the ingredients together with enough olive oil to form a paste-like consistency.
- Add 6-8 lamb chops to a zip-lock plastic bag (or platter or baking pan) and coat with the marinade so all of the lamb is covered. Press the air out of the bag and rest it on a platter or in a baking pan (or cover with plastic wrap tightly if using a pan). Refrigerate to let it marinate for at least 12 hours or up to overnight.
- When ready to cook, remove the lamb chops from the fridge and from the marinade bag. Let them come to room temperature by resting out of the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before grilling.In the meantime, heat your grill to high heat (450°F to 500°F). Sear the lamb chops for 5 minutes over direct heat, then flip and grill for another 5 minutes.
- Move the lamb chops to indirect heat on the opposite side of the grill, then grill for an additional 3-5 minutes. Your lamb chops will be medium-rare. Leave on for longer and follow the temperature chart below if you want them cooked more.
- Remove from the grill and place on a plate or platter. Cover with foil and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat a grill or cast-iron grill pan over high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the fire so that one side of the grill has more coals than the other - a "hot" side. If using a grill pan, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Rub the lamb chops with the garlic and season aggressively with salt and pepper. If grilling, place on the hot side for 2 minutes per side. Move the chops to the cooler side of the grill to cook through, an additional 6 to 7 minutes. If using a grill pan, grill one side for 2 minutes to sear, then turn over the chops and place the pan in the oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the grill or oven and allow to sit 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality lamb chops. Look for chops that are a deep red color and have a good amount of marbling. Avoid chops that are pale or have a lot of fat.
- Marinate the lamb chops before grilling. This will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
- Grill the lamb chops over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the chops while keeping the inside juicy. Cook the chops for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the lamb chops rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them even more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides. Some popular options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and grilled asparagus.
Conclusion:
Grilled lamb chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your lamb chops turn out perfectly every time. So fire up your grill and get cooking!
