Grilled Herbed Lamb Chops

Directions

1. Wash hands with soap and water.

2. Rinse fresh produce.

3. In a small bowl, combine garlic, shallots, herbs, peppercorns and salt to taste; whisk in oil.

4. Place lamb chops in a shallow dish and spread oil mixture over top. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator and allow the chops to come to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Wash hands after handling raw lamb.

5. Preheat grill to medium-high.

6. Remove chops from marinade; discard used marinade. Wrap the exposed ends of the bones with aluminum foil to keep them from burning. Grill for 3 minutes per side or until internal temperature on a meat thermometer reaches 135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium. Remove from grill and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
