Grilled Lamb Chops With Mint Gremolata Food

LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Place chops, olive oil, mint, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large, sealable plastic bag. Toss to coat lamb chops and marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Remove chops, wipe off excess marinade, and season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Broil chops on high until medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make gremolata: Crush garlic, lemon zest, and salt into a paste using the side of a large knife or a mortar and pestle. In a small bowl, stir together garlic paste and mint leaves with olive oil. Transfer chops to serving plate, drizzle with mint gremolata, and garnish with fresh mint.

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Mix the olive oil, mint, red pepper flakes, and salt to taste in a bowl. Rub the lamb chops all over with the garlic. Transfer a few tablespoons of the mint oil to a small bowl and brush on the chops.
• Grill the chops until charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side. (Press the middle of a chop with your finger: It should be slightly firm with a little give for medium-rare doneness.) Transfer to a platter and brush with some of the remaining mint oil. Sprinkle with mint and serve with more mint oil.

LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT AND PISTACHIO SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• For the salsa verde: In a medium bowl, add the parsley, olive oil, mint, pistachios, capers, lemon juice and salt and stir with a rubber spatula until combined. Set aside to let the flavors marry.
• For the lamb: Meanwhile, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Dry the lamb chops well with a paper towel and season with the salt. Brush the grill with olive oil and grill the chops for 4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Remove to a plate to rest for 10 minutes.
• Drizzle the chops with some of the sauce and serve the remaining sauce alongside.

Steps:

• Preheat a cast-iron grill pan over high heat.
• Prepare the gremolata: In a small food processor, combine mint, lemon zest, lemon juice, pine nuts, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon oil. Pulse until the mixture is roughly chopped and combined. While continuing to pulse, add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. The mixture should remain somewhat coarse.
• Prepare the lamb chops: Coat both sides of the chops with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place chops on grill pan, cooking 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the chops and serve with a dollop of gremolata.

RACK OF LAMB WITH MINT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Season the lamb with salt and pepper and let it rest until it reaches room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Place in a roasting pan and roast for about 20 to 25 minutes for medium-rare.
• When the lamb has cooked for about 15 minutes, mince the mint, garlic and lemon zest until very fine, almost a paste.
• Note: Fresh mint will discolor almost immediately, so do this at the last -- about 5 minutes before you'll use it.
• Spread the mint gremolata over the rack of lamb and return to the oven for the final 5 minutes.
• Remove the rack of lamb from the oven and let it rest under a foil tent for about 10 minutes.
• Cut it into chops and serve.

GRILLED BABY LAMB CHOPS WITH ORANGE-MINT YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir all the sauce ingredients together and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving (the sauce can be made a few hours in advance, covered, and kept refrigerated).
• Heat your grill to high.
• Brush the chops on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred and crusty, 3 minutes.
• Turn the chops over, reduce the heat to medium or move to a cooler part of the grill, and grill until just cooked through, 2-3 minutes more.
• At the same time, grill the orange halves cut side down until heated through and lightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and cut each half in half.
• Serve the chops immediately, garnishing each plate with yogurt sauce, an orange quarter and fresh mint. Squeeze the oranges over the chops before eating.

GRILLED AUSTRALIAN LAMB LOIN CHOPS WITH ORANGE-MINT GREMOLATA RE

Steps:

• Place the lamb in a flat glass or ceramic dish. Combine orange juice with the olive oil and pour over the lamb, turning chops to coat well in mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper, cover with plastic, and marinate for 20-30 minutes, turning the chops occasionally during that time.
• To make the gremolata, combine chopped orange zest, mint and garlic in a small bowl and set aside.
• Preheat grill to medium. Pat the lamb dry and grill for about 4 minutes on each side or until cooked as preferred. For medium-rare, the chops should register 130°F on a meat thermometer or be plump and springy when pressed.
• While the lamb is cooking, steam the beans for 1 minute or until tender-crisp. Drain the water and add the olive oil and sliced almonds. Season to taste and shake the pan gently until heated through.
• Serve the lamb with the beans, and spoon the orange-mint gremolata over all or on the side.
