Grilled Lamb Chops
Wonderful flavor from some simple ingredients and a quick marinade. I will certainly be making this again and again. I grilled these outside on a gas grill and the timing was perfect!

Cook Time: 6 min
Ingredients:
| 2 | , large garlic cloves, , crushed |
| 1 tablespoon | fresh rosemary leaves |
| 1 teaspoon | fresh thyme leaves |
| pinch cayenne pepper | |
| sea, coarse salt | |
| 2 tablespoons | extra-virgin olive oil |
| 6 | lamb chops, about 3/4-inch thick |
Directions:
In a food processor fitted with a metal blade add the garlic, rosemary, thyme, cayenne, and salt. Pulse until combined. Pour in olive oil and pulse into a paste. Rub the paste on both sides of the lamb chops and let them marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. Remove from refrigerator and allow the chops to come to room temperature; it will take about 20 minutes.
Heat a grill pan over high heat until almost smoking, add the chops and sear for about 2 minutes. Flip the chops over and cook for another 3 minutes for medium-rare and 3 1/2 minutes for medium.
