Rosemary & Garlic Grilled Birmingham Lamb Loin Chops

I made this lamb in a hotel room in Birmingham, Alabama. The lamb was purchased at Fresh Market and was from a local farmer. It was AMAZING.

  1. Lightly spray, or using your finger, wipe olive oil on the chops.
  2. Chop the garlic. Rub onto the lamb.

  4. Salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Cover and let sit (refrigerated) for several hours.

Notes

I used an olive oil spray, but it was pure olive oil and non-aerosol. At home, I have a pump that I put pure olive oil into to spray food. I wouldn't recommend using the packaged aerosol cans, just because I think the taste would be sacrificed.
Yield is 2 chops per person; servings above assume 2 people.
Low in sodium, very low in sugar, high in niacin, phosphorus, and zinc, very high in selenium and vitamin B12.
