How to Make Balsamic And Rosemary Lamb Chops

  1. In a bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add lamb chops, ensuring they are fully coated in the marinade. Let stand for at least 10 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the cooking surface.
  3. Remove lamb chops from marinade and discard the marinade. Place lamb chops on the hot grill, and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on thickness and desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches your preferred level.
  4. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
