Ingredients
Scale
Meat
- 2 pounds lamb chops
Seasoning
- Lamb Chop Marinade (or your favorite seasoning)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to the broil setting to preheat, ensuring it reaches a high temperature suitable for quick cooking and browning.
- Prepare the baking sheet and rack: Place a wire rack inside a large baking sheet. This setup allows heat to circulate and helps the lamb chops cook evenly with a nice crust.
- Arrange the lamb chops: Place the seasoned lamb chops onto the wire rack, spreading them out to ensure even exposure to the heat.
- Initial broiling: Put the baking sheet with lamb chops on the lower rack of the oven and broil for 6 minutes. This starts cooking the chops through while developing a crust.
- Finish broiling on the top rack: Move the baking sheet to the top rack and broil for an additional 2 to 3 minutes to get a beautifully seared and browned finish.
- Rest the lamb chops: Remove the chops from the oven and let them rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute for optimal flavor and tenderness.
Notes
- Broiling cooks lamb chops quickly while creating a delicious crust.
- Use your favorite marinade or seasoning to customize flavor.
- Resting meat after cooking ensures juiciness.
- Using a wire rack allows for even heat circulation and crisping.
