Marinated Lamb Chops

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 lemon, zested (about 1/2 teaspoon)
• 1 lemon, juiced (about 2 tablespoons)
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano leaves, or 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons minced garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 8 (4-ounce) lamb loin chops, trimmed of all visible fat

Directions

In a small bowl stir together the first 7 ingredients. Put the lamb chops in a sealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Move the chops around in the bag so the marinade coats them well. Marinate for 1 hour.

Grill or broil the chops for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare.
