Reviews
Tender and yummy. Of course I think it needed more salt.
Remarkably Simple
This was my 2nd time making this and it confirmed the 1st time wasn’t a fluke. I had never had lamb before in my 40+ years and this was Awesome! And SO simple. Honestly the most challenging piece was zesting the lemon (LOL). Bought extra lamb chops to freeze because they were on sale as I will be making this again very soon.

This has been my go-to recipe for years. Simple ingredients that I always have on hand. Just as good on chicken and fish.
Outstanding. These were seriously delicious. A definite make again.
