  • Lemon

How to Make Australia Day Lamb Chops

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  2. Place the lamb chops in a resealable container or zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the lamb, ensuring all chops are coated. Marinate for at least 1 hour, or ideally, the entire day for maximum flavor. (Perfect for keeping in an esky at the beach!)
  3. Preheat your grill or BBQ to high heat.
  4. Grill the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches your desired level (130-145°F for medium-rare).
  5. Remove from grill, let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra rosemary sprigs, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
