Ingredients Needed
- 8 lamb chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Fresh mint leaves, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup Sauvignon Blanc
- Additional mint for garnish
Preparation Steps
Start by marinating the lamb chops. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, chopped mint, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over the lamb chops and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the lamb chops for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During grilling, baste with any remaining marinade for extra flavor.
While the lamb cooks, pour the Sauvignon Blanc into a glass and chill slightly. This wine pairs excellently with the richness of the lamb and the freshness of the mint.
Serving Suggestions
Once cooked, let the lamb chops rest for a few minutes. Garnish with additional fresh mint leaves. Serve the grilled lamb chops alongside a chilled glass of Sauvignon Blanc for a complete and elegant meal.
