Juicy, Grilled Greek Lamb Chops
Ingredients:
8 lamb chops, about 3/4 inch thick
2 cups white wine
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh or 2 tsp dried leaf oregano
1/2 tsp each salt and freshly ground black pepper
To prepare:
Trim fat on chops to about 1/4 inch.
Mix marinade of wine, oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper.
Place chops in a dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer.
Pour marinade mixture over the chops and cover dish.
Marinate in refrigerator at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, turning chops 2 or 3 times during marinating.
Preheat and lightly oil grill.
Drain chops, reserving marinade.
Grill chops from 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Baste with marinade while grilling.
Note:
Adjust seasoning for pasture-raised, delicately flavored lamb from Shepherd Song Farm.
