Ingredients
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary3 medium cloves garlic, pressed1/4 tsp salt1/4 tsp pepper12 lamb chops
Directions
Mix together lemon juice, rosemary, pressed garlic, salt and pepper. Rub lamb chops with mixture. Set aside on plate.

Preheat broiler on high heat, and place a stainless steel or cast iron skillet large enough to hold the lamb chops under the heat for about 10 minutes to get very hot (about 5-7 inches from the heat source). Be sure that the handle is also metal.

Once pan is hot, place lamb chops in pan, and return to broiler for about 4-5 minutes, depending on thickness of lamb. Lamb is cooked quickly as it is cooking on both sides at the same time.

    I never had Lamb before and this was awesome! I pan fried these instead of broiling and they tender and very flavorful. Thanks for sharing! - 1/16/09

    How easy! Got the lamb chops "frenched" (very gourmet and fancy looking) put all ingredients in a large ziploc freezer bag and marinated for a few hours and "viola"...delicious, tender and fragrant lamb chops! - 3/23/11

    Needless to say, being Greek, I eat a lot of lamb. This is an awesome recipe - very easy and a great company dish. - 8/3/10

    Made this and the Israeli Herbed Couscous for an impromptu dinner party. Everyone loved it. And because it was so easy and quick, I got to spend most of the evening visiting with my surprise visitors. I didn't have lamb chops so I cut up a leg of lamb and used pieces about the size of lamb chop - 1/16/11

    This was great! It was also quick and easy. I was able to marinade the meat for a while before cooking and I used my George Forman grill to cook it in. The lamb was juicy and tender. It was the first time I have cooked lamb and the first time my family has eaten it(dangerous combo)They loved it! Yay - 12/9/08

    Turned out well, although my lamp chops took about 10 minutes to cook instead of 5. First time making lamb at home, and I was satisfied, although I still hold my parents' lamb as the gold standard :) Quick and easy! - 7/28/09

    OMG This recipe was so delicious amd easy!!!! I have never made lamb chops before and had been a little intimidated, but then I saw this recipe and figured I would give it a try. Heating my pan was such a great tip, and seared the meat so all the juices stayed inside! Thank you so much! - 7/29/08
