How to Make Lamb Chops Sensory Explosion
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Rinse and pat dry 2 lamb chops (adjust quantities as needed). Place lamb chops in the bowl, turning to coat evenly with the seasoning mix.
- Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or up to 6 hours.
- Place lamb chops in a casserole dish.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 350°F (175°C). Add 1-2 tablespoons of water to the pan if the chops begin to stick or brown too quickly.
- Check the lamb chops for doneness. If they are still pink, continue baking for 5-10 more minutes. Note: Thinner chops may require less cooking time. Always check with a meat thermometer for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Top each lamb chop with 2 slices of tomato and 2 slices of mozzarella cheese. Add additional black pepper to taste.
- Bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Optionally, add 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes for extra heat (sprinkle after step 6).
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender meat.
- Serve immediately with a crusty loaf of bread and your favorite sides.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
