Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a freezer bag or silicone bag (this is my favourite one), add lamb chops, salt and pepper and ¼ cup of chimichurri sauce. Close the bag and shake until lamb chops are coated with the marinade sauce. Set aside for about 1 hour on the kitchen counter top.
  • Preheat cast iron pan or grill over medium heat. I like to use my cast iron because my lamb chops were small.
  • Pour olive oil to pan if using pan and place lamb chops on it.
  • Cook for about 3 minutes on every side of the lamb without touching of flipping. Lamb chops will be cooked when chops get the internal temperature of 140°F in the thickest part.
  • Transfer the chops to a platter and drizzle with the rest of the chimichuri sauce over them. Serve with tomato sauce and grilled veggies. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Try to buy lamp chops similar in size so they grill evenly.
  • Avoid moving the lamb chops too much as you grill them so they get a nice brown sear on each side.
  • If you use bone-in lamb chops, you will have to increase the cooking time. 
  • To store: Store leftover grilled lamb chops in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat: You can reheat leftovers on the stove or in the microwave. 
  • To freeze: Freeze the cooked lamb chops in an airtight bag for up to 3 months.
