These Easy Baked Lamb Chops are tender, juicy, and full of savory flavor, making them perfect for both weeknight dinners and special occasions with minimal effort.

Ingredients

  • 46 lamb chops
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, pepper, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
  3. Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels.
  4. Rub the marinade all over the lamb chops and let them sit for 15-30 minutes at room temperature.
  5. Place the lamb chops on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chops are browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
  7. Let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness.
  • Marinate overnight for enhanced flavor.
  • Use dried rosemary if fresh is unavailable—reduce quantity by half.
  • Optional: Add red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Can be grilled or cooked in an air fryer instead of baking.
