Herb-Roasted Lamb Chops image

DH and I made this recipe from the February 2009 edition of Bon Appetit a few nights ago and really enjoyed it. We usually prepare our lamb chops on the grill, but I thought that this recipe would lend itself well when grilling is just not practical. I am posting the recipe as printed in Bon Appetit, however, DH suggested that next time I chop the rosemary and thyme leaves, rather than lightly crush them with my mortar and pestel. Prep time includes marinating time.

This lamb chop recipe is a keeper! The herbs and spices create a delicious crust on the chops, and the meat is cooked to perfection. I served it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes, and it was a hit with my family.
