How to Make Rustic French Rub

  1. Finely chop 2 tablespoons of fresh sage leaves, 2 tablespoons of fresh rosemary leaves, and 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the chopped herbs with 2 teaspoons of sea salt and 1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper. Mix well.
  3. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and the zest of 1 lemon to the herb mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
  4. Generously rub the mixture all over your lamb leg or pork chops. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator) to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat before cooking.
  5. Grill, roast, or pan-fry your meat according to your preferred method and recipe. Enjoy the explosion of Provençal flavors!
