Greek Style Grilled Lamb Chops

Next up for your grilling enjoyment are these tasty greek style grilled lamb chops! The lamb chops are marinated in a a Greek style marinade consisting of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano and yogurt over night before they are thrown on the grill and grilled until they are lightly charred, smoky and oh so good! These grilled lamb chops are so quick and easy to make and I like to serve them with grilled veggies, lemon roasted potatoes, a greek style salad and watermelon for a really nice summer meal that can be cooked outside!

    Can these lamb chops be made in the oven–roasted or broiled?

    Anonymous: Yes, you can broil them in the oven or fry them in pan (cast iron) or in a grill pan, all with about the same cook time on broil or at medium-high heat.

    These look fabulous as well as the potatoes. The lamb looks like US style lamb shoulder chops which I do like. About $6-7 a pound cheaper. Thank you for sharing.

    Hi Kevin. These look delicious. My husband will only eat meat that has a sauce on it. What do you recommend putting on top of these? Maybe a yogurt lime sauce?
    Thanks.

      A tzatziki sauce (https://www.closetcooking.com/tzatziki-sauce/) would be fabulous on these!

    This may be bad, but we aren’t big lamb eaters. Could we use this recipe on beef or pork and what cuts/ recipe changes would you recommend?

    These appear to be shoulder chops – definitely not rib. Is that correct? Or what cut are they. Love your recipes.

      Definitely shoulder chops. Looks like a mix of arm and blade chops which is typical if you buy a number of them in a tray pack.

    The amount of pop ups and ads on your site is absurd. I get you need some for funding, but you material is almost inaccessible at this point.
