These Grilled Lamb Chops with Mint Sauce are tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The lamb is simply seasoned and grilled to perfection, then paired with a bright, tangy homemade mint sauce that cuts through the richness of the meat. A perfect dish for special occasions or elegant dinners outdoors.
For the lamb chops:
8 lamb rib or loin chops (about 1-inch thick)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp fresh rosemary or 1 tsp dried
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the mint sauce:
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup boiling water
2 tbsp white wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
1 tbsp sugar
Pinch of salt
Make the mint sauce:
In a small bowl, stir the chopped mint with boiling water. Let sit for 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool while preparing the lamb.
Marinate the lamb:
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture over the lamb chops and let sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes.
Grill the lamb chops:
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill lamb chops for about 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare (internal temp of 135°F), or until desired doneness.
Serve:
Let lamb chops rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle or serve with mint sauce on the side.
For extra flavor, marinate lamb overnight in the fridge.
Mint sauce can be made a day ahead for deeper flavor.
Serve with grilled veggies, potatoes, or a fresh green salad.
