The secret is in the marinade and its important to let the lamb chops absorb all of the Greek flavors for at least a few hours. Its even better if they can marinate overnight. The vinegar tenderizes the meat and the seasonings take away the gaminess that lamb tends to have. These lamb chops are definitely fancy enough for a dinner party and easy to serve on any busy weeknight. Im using lamb loins instead of the ribs from a rack of lamb. Theyre meatier and a little bit less expensive. You can use rib chops if you prefer. They will cook quicker.Print this recipe here: https://www.dimitrasdishes.com/how-to-cook-lamb-chops-pan-fried-greek-style/Serves 3:3 pounds lamb loins, approximately 11 loins3 garlic cloves, grated cup red wine vinegar cup olive oil1 teaspoon (or more) saltBlack pepper, to taste teaspoon ground cumin3 tablespoons (or more) dried crushed oreganoServe with lemon wedges and chopped fresh mintPlace the lamb chops in a tray.Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and whisk together.
