Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 2 tbsp chopped fresh oregano, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp sea salt, and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper until combined.
  2. Step 2: Place 8 lamb chops on a large baking sheet and brush both sides generously with the marinade mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Let the chops rest for 10 minutes at room temperature to absorb the flavors.
  3. Step 3: Roast the lamb chops in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they reach your desired doneness and the edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
