The key to these juicy lamb chops is in our simple marinade.

It only takes a few minutes to grill these lamb chops on both sides and serve.
I prefer to use a cast iron grill pan when grilling lamb chops indoors, but an outdoor grill will work just the same.
To complement these lamb chops, serve them with any of our side dishes:
- Easy Garlic Mashed Potatoes
- Favorite Greek Salad
- Baked Vegetable Bird’s Nest
- Roasted Baby Red and Yukon Potatoes with Herbs
- Baby Red Potato Salad
Can We Broil Them?
You can also cook these lamb chops in your oven broiler. Broiling is another great method for getting grill-like results.
Both methods are fast and easy for cooking and grilling meats.
Some of our friends think Italian cooking is difficult or too complex, and they won’t even attempt to make an Italian dish. Well, that’s not true.
Italian cooking is very easy!
Through the years we watched our mother use only the simplest ingredients, the ones that we all have in our pantry. No need to fuss with a lot of ingredients or ones you can’t find or will never-ever use again.
And that’s what makes Italian cooking so easy! Try this recipe, you are going to love it!
Enjoy!

Your mother was a smart cook! And Italian dishes are a perfect example of simplicity when it comes to cooking. I love what you did here. Great flavors. the other day I just cooked myself 3 little lamb chops using a little salt. Thatโs all. It was wonderful. The meat just spoke for itself! But I love your recipe, too! Itโs just that my husband doesnโt eat lamb. So when I have it, itโs just for me!
Aw, thanks so much Mimi. We love lamb and this is a terrific recipe for you to give it a try next time you cook lamb chops for yourself. Enjoy! ๐
