Grilled Lamb Chops Marinated in Orange Juice, Garlic, and Rosemary Recipe

Along marinade gives even the leanest frilled or broiled lamb chops a moist and robust flavor.

 

Ingredients

4 (5-ounce) lean lamb chops (1 1/2 inches thick)

2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed

1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Method

Trim fat from chops; place in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag. Combine garlic, salt, pepper, and rosemary in a mortar; crush with pestle, use a small food processor or mash with a wooden spoon.) Mix in orange juice and vinegar; pour over chops. Seal bag, and squeeze until chops are coated. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight, turning bag occasionally.

 

Coat grill rack, or rack in a broiler pan, with cooking spray; place chops on rack, and grill over medium-hot coals or broil 6 inches from heat source 6 to 9 minutes on each side or to desired degree of doneness, basting chops frequently with marinade.
