Make a pesto by combining crushed garlic, fresh mint, fresh oregano, rosemary, Himalayan pebble salt, black peppercorns, and olive oil in a mortar and pestle (or use a blender/food processor).

Soak the lamb chops in the pesto marinade for 2-3 hours in the refrigerator.

Preheat the grill and cook the lamb chops to medium rare, aiming for an internal temperature of about 132 degrees.
