Ingredients
  • 2-3 lamb chops per person
  • Salt and cracked black pepper
Chimichurri
  • 1 cup cilantro, finely chopped

  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar 
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced

Directions
  1. Take the lamb out of the fridge 20 minutes before you sear or grill. While it is coming to room temp, make the chimichurri.
  2. In a bowl combine the chopped cilantro, grated garlic, roughly chopped capers, extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice and season well with salt and cracked black pepper. 
  3. Season the lamb well with kosher salt and cracked black pepper. Place on the hot grill or pan and sear 3 minutes on the first side and then 2 minutes on the other. Place in a bowl and cover with tin foil to let it rest a couple minutes. Remove foil and top with the chimi. Enjoy!
