Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Marinate the Lamb Chops
In a small bowl, mix olive oil 🫒, minced garlic 🧄, chopped rosemary 🌿, salt, and black pepper 🧂.
Rub the mixture all over the lamb chops and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
2️⃣ Prepare the Vegetables
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, toss the carrots 🥕, zucchini 🥒, red onion 🧅, and cherry tomatoes 🍅 with olive oil 🫒, salt, black pepper 🧂, and dried oregano 🌿.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer.
3️⃣ Roast the Vegetables
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through.
4️⃣ Cook the Lamb Chops
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the time for your desired doneness.
5️⃣ Serve
Arrange the lamb chops on a platter and serve alongside the roasted vegetables. Garnish with fresh rosemary 🌿 for an elegant touch.
Pro Tip:
For an extra layer of flavor, drizzle the lamb chops with balsamic glaze before serving.
