Instructions
-
In a small bowl, stir together mint, rosemary, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Rub on chops.
-
Cover the chops with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or overnight.
-
Prepare grill either by igniting coals and allowing them to die down to medium-hot, or by preheating a gas grill to medium-high.
-
For medium chops, cook 6 to 7 minutes per side (or until firm and resilient to touch); for rare, cook about 5 minutes per side (or until meat is barely firm — but not springy — to touch).
-
Alternatively, preheat oven to 400 degrees; and roast chops 10 to 15 minutes, depending upon how well done you like them, turning once.
-
Slice into one chop to test doneness; remove from grill while slightly pinker than desired. Transfer to a platter.
-
Serve with gremolata sauce on the side, and enjoy!
