Can you overcook lamb?

Yes, it will become tough and fibrous when overcooked. For best results, use an instant-read meat thermometer to test the temperature of the lamb.

How do you know when Lamb is cooked?

We ALWAYS temperature-test our meat and poultry for safety and accuracy. The Thermometer should be placed in the thickest part of the Lamb Chop. Cook your Lamb for about 3 - 4 minutes per side until the internal temperature is 135 for Medium Rare and 145 for Medium. The smaller the lamb chops, the faster they cook.

Does lamb keep cooking when resting?

It will keep cooking slightly. Tent the meat loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes.

Can you over-marinate lamb chops?

I marinate lamb for no more than 24 hours, generally 30-60 minutes.

What other herbs go well with lamb chops?

Mint, Oregano, and Thyme also go well with Lamb.

Can you cook lamb chops in the oven?

You can also pan-sear them and finish cooking them in a 375-degree oven.

Ingredients

Units Scale

1/4 cup Olive Oil
6 Cloves Chopped Garlic – use less if you prefer

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Place all the ingredients and the Lambchops in a glass bowl or plastic baggies. Shake until coated and marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.

On a pre-heated Grill, Cook your Lamb for about 3 – 4 minutes per side until the internal temperature is 135 for Medium Rare and 145 for Medium. We always use an instant-read thermometer. Close the grill lid while cooking and keep a close eye. The exact time will differ depending on the thickness of the Lambchops.

A thicker chop will take longer than baby lamb chops. Remember, the lamb chops keep cooking when they come off the grill. Be careful not to overcook the lamb chops, or they will dry out and lose flavor.

Notes

Serve with Roasted Potatoes and Vegetables—pairs well with Mayo Dijon Sauce.

Mayonnaise Dijon Mustard Sauce – Mix 1/2 Cup of good Olive Oil Mayo with 1 Tablespoon of Dijon Mustard and Juice of 1/2 Lemon. Add 1/2 Teaspoon of Cracked Black pepper. Whisk until Smooth!
