Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary, 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 tsp kosher salt, and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper to form a marinade.
  2. Step 2: Rub the marinade evenly over 8 lamb rib chops, ensuring both sides are coated. Let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Prepare a charcoal grill with medium-high heat (about 450°F), letting the coals reach a glowing red with a light layer of ash.
  4. Step 4: Place the lamb chops directly over the coals and grill for 4 minutes per side, flipping once, until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare and the edges are caramelized.
  5. Step 5: Remove lamb chops from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with 4 lemon wedges to squeeze over each chop for brightness.
