Ingredients

  • 8 lamb chops
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
  • 1 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, roughly chopped

Directions

  1. Remove the lamb chops from your refrigerator and leave them at room temperature for several minutes to take some of the chill off. Trim and discard any excess fat from the meat. Pre-heat your grill to high.
  2. While your grill is pre-heating, make the marinade. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, ginger and garlic. Mix well. Then remove two tablespoons of the marinade to a clean bowl and set it aside for later.
  3. Lightly oil your grill racks. Place the lamb chops on the grill and cook for 2 minutes. Then flip the lamb chops and baste them generously with the marinade. Word of caution: your grill will flare up while you do this. Work CAREFULLY people!
  4. Cook the lamb chops for 2 minutes on the second side. Then flip again and baste them generously a second time. Continue cooking until they are done, just about 1 minute more. Remove from the grill and transfer to serving platter. Garnish with the chopped parsley.
  5. Serve immediately with some of the reserved marinade.

Lamb Braai Chops and Peppers

For more similar awesome lamb chop braai recipes click here! more recipes

,

Ingredients

  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 2 Tbsp. chopped rosemary
  • 2 Tbsp. plus ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil; plus more for peppers
  • 12 lamb rib chops (about 2¼ lb. total), preferably unfrenched
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  • 1 cup parsley leaves with tender stems
  • ½ cup small dill sprigs
  • 1 lemon
  • 12–16 Jimmy Nardello peppers, 8 Cubanelle peppers, or 8 oz. shishito peppers
  • Red wine vinegar (for serving)

Directions

  1. Pound garlic, rosemary, and 2 Tbsp. oil with a mortar and pestle until pulverized. (Alternatively, finely grate garlic and finely chop rosemary. Combine in a small bowl and mix in the oil.) Season lamb chops on both sides with salt and black pepper. Coat all over with garlic paste and let sit at room temperature 30 minutes or cover and chill up to 12 hours.
  2. Just before you are ready to grill the chops, make the herb salsa. Pound parsley and dill with mortar and pestle with a big pinch of salt until coarsely crushed. (Alternatively, finely chop the herbs and combine in a medium bowl.)
  3. Finely grate zest from lemon into herbs, then slice lemon in half and squeeze in its juice. Stir in ½ cup oil; taste and season herb salsa with more salt if needed.
  4. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Grill lamb chops, turning often to encourage fat to render and moving to a new spot on the grill whenever there’s a flare-up, until nicely charred on the outside but still pink in the center, 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and let rest 5–10 minutes.
  5. While the chops are resting, toss peppers in a medium bowl with enough oil to coat; season with salt.
  6. Grill peppers, turning often, until skins are blistered and charred in spots and flesh is tender, about 3 minutes. Return to bowl, add a few dashes of vinegar, and toss to coat.
  7. Serve lamb and peppers with herb salsa for spooning over.

Greek lamb braai chops

For more similar awesome lamb chop braai recipes click here! more recipes

,

Ingredients

For the marinade

  • 8 lamb rib chops (approx. 700g/ 25 oz.)
  • 1/3 of a cup olive oil
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 1 1/2 tbsp mustard
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped rosemary (optional)
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 3–4 peppercorns

For the potatoes

  • 4 medium sized potatoes, cut into wedges
  • 1 large clove of garlic, minced
  • 50ml olive oil (1/4 of a cup)
  • 80ml water (1/3 of a cup)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 tsp semolina
  • salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. To prepare this Greek lamb chops recipe (paidakia) start by preparing the marinade. In a shallow glass baking dish add all the marinade ingredients and blend. Add the lamb chops (paidakia) and rub the meat with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for a least 3 hours (if you have the time leave overnight).
  2. Return the lamb chops at room temperature and preheat the oven to 200C.
  3. Cut the potatoes into wedges and place them on a large metal roasting pan. Into a bowl add the remaining ingredients and blend.
  4. Pour the mixture over the potatoes and season well with salt and pepper. (The potatoes and the ‘paidakia’ cook at different times, so you should add the lamb chops later, about 20-30 minutes before the end of cooking time).
  5. Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, until a nice golden crust has formed on the potatoes. Turn them out of the oven, toss them a little bit to bring them upside down, sprinkle with a pinch of oregano and put back into the oven for another 30 minutes.
  6. If all of the liquid has been absorbed and the pan appears to be getting dry, add 1/4 of a cup hot water into the pan, before they have fully browned.
  7. Remove the paidakia (Greek lambs chops) from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Place the lamb chops in the same pan (on a single layer) and bake for 20-25 minutes flipping them sides halfway through cooking time.
  8. Let the paidakia (Greek lamb chops) rest for 5-10 minutes and serve with a last minute squeeze of a lemon and a pinch of dried oregano. Enjoy!
