Ingredients
  

For the Lamb Lollipops:
  • 3 racks lamb, frenched and cut into chops trimmed of all but a thin layer of fat
  • to taste coarse sea salt or Kosher salt
  • to taste freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme chopped
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges

Equipment

  • Chef’s knife
  • Cutting board
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, olive oil, coarse sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
  2. Add the frenched lamb racks to the bowl, ensuring each chop is generously coated with the marinade. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the lamb from the marinade and allow excess to drip off. Cook on the grill or skillet for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  5. Transfer the lamb to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  6. Serve the lamb lollipops with fresh lemon wedges for a bright finish.

Notes

  • Don't skip the marinating step for maximum flavor.
  • Avoid overcooking; use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness.
  • Let the meat rest after cooking to ensure tenderness.
