Lamb Chops with Garlic and Olive Oil

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
• 8 lamb rib chops, about 1 inch thick (about 2 3/4 pounds in all)

Steps

1. Light the grill or heat the broiler. In a shallow dish, combine 4 tablespoons of the oil with the garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the lamb chops and turn to coat.
2. Grill over high heat or broil the lamb chops for 5 minutes, basting with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Turn and cook until done, about 5 minutes longer.
