Aromatic lamb chops, rich in flavour, make centerpiece in all Middle Eastern dinner spreads and are the perfect meal for a romantic night out. Marinated in various herbs and spices before being seared, this insanely satisfying dish is a favourite in Arab households. To elevate the earthy and minty flavours in these “lamb lollipops” (meat on a rib chop that is French trimmed), we use our 100% natural Oregano + Thyme Dressing as marinade.
Chef’s note:
- Preheat the grill to 180°C. One of the easiest meats to grill, lamb chops need minimal cooking time when the grill is preheated correctly.
- For a beautiful sear over the ribs, ensure the meat is at room temperature before they go on the grill.
