Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 2 tsp dried oregano, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper until well combined.
  2. Step 2: Place 8 lamb chops in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning the chops to coat evenly. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to penetrate.
  3. Step 3: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and arrange the marinated lamb chops in a single layer.
  4. Step 4: Roast the lamb chops in the oven for 12-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they reach medium-rare to medium doneness and the edges are slightly crispy.
  5. Step 5: Remove from the oven and let the chops rest for 5 minutes to retain juices. Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley before serving.
