Lemon and Oregano Lamb Loin Chops

JustJanS's Note:

Something we often make to cook outside on the barbeque. I love to use the frenched loin chops, expensive little mouthfuls, but soooo good.

• Total Time: 11 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 6 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 1 kg lamb loin chop , frenched are great
• 2 lemons, juice of
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cloves garlic , finely chopped

Directions:

1. Place the chops in a non-reactive container, add the remaining ingredients and mix and massage them into the chops with your hands.
2. Set aside for about 1 hour to marinate.
3. Heat your grill or broiler, and cook the chops to your liking-we find about 3 minutes on a hot grill is enough for the little frenched ones.

The marinade was a fantastic with our lamb loin chops (was a little worried that the flavour would be too lemony - I got 1/2 cup of lemon juice from 2 lemons) once cooked the flavours were great (though the DH thought I undercooked 2 out of 4 of his as they were still pink and so raw but I beg to differ and put it down to him being grumpy coming of 12 hour night shift and doing the shift change, Thank you Jan for a lovely marinade, made for Make My Recipe - Edition 16.

Simple ingredients and very easy to put together, both Hubby and Little Miss (DD) really enough the flavours. I used regular Lion Lamb Chops and kept to the recipe. Thanks so much for posting your recipe JustJanS

After reading about the wonders of lamb, especially loin chops, I purchased them but didn't know what to do with them. I found this recipe when searching. I happened to have all the ingredients on hand. What a fabulous recipe! The whole family loved it. It has easily made it into our list of regular meals. I love that the ingredients are simple, fresh, and generally on hand. I also love that the marinade has no added fat. Thank you so much for posting this.
