  • 1/2 cup (120 mL) olive oil
  • 1/3 cup (80 mL) red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon (15 mL) dried rosemary
  • 1 to 2​ cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon (5 mL) sea salt

Steps to Make It

  1. Place lamb chops in resealable plastic bag. Combine marinade ingredients and pour over lamb. Gently work marinade all over chops, release excess air from bag and seal. Allow chops to marinate in the ​refrigerator for 3 to 5 hours.

  2. Preheat grill for high heat. Remove chops from marinade and place on grill rack. Cook for 5-6 minutes per side, making sure to watch for flare-ups.

  3. Once cooked through (145 F for medium rare, 155 F for medium, 165 Ffor well done), remove from heat and allow to rest five minutes covered before serving.
