Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 medium-sized Lamb Chops
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Dried Oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Dried Thyme
  • 1/2 tablespoon Smoked Paprika
  • 34 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 1/2 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil
  • Juice from 1/2 Lemon
  • Fresh Parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Begin by processing or blending the red bell pepper, fresh parsley, and minced garlic into a coarse mixture.
  2. Next, divide the lamb rack into 8 individual chops.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the lamb chops with the bell pepper mixture as well as the remaining ingredients.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
  5. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  6. In a cast iron skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  7. Sear each lamb chop for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust.
  8. Once all the chops are seared, transfer them back to the skillet.
  9. Now, place the skillet into the preheated oven.
  10. Bake for 2-5 minutes for medium-rare doneness, or for 5-10 minutes for medium to well-done outcome.
  11. Once finished, plate the lamb chops and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes
