lamb chops

🥗Healthier: chicken thighs

💰Cheaper: pork chops

Chicken thighs are lower in fat and cost less than lamb.

balsamic vinegar

🥗Healthier: red wine vinegar

💰Cheaper: apple cider vinegar

Red wine vinegar provides a similar acidity at a lower cost.

1

Cut the rack of lamb into individual chops, ensuring to find the gap between the bones to avoid dulling the knife.

2

Clean off any excess fat from the lamb chops to prevent flare-ups while grilling.

3

Wash hands with warm soap and water after handling the meat.

4

Prepare a marinade using olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

5

Place the lamb chops into a Ziploc bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated.

6

Let the lamb chops marinate for an unspecified time (the creator mentions they marinated some earlier in the day).

7

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

8

Grill the marinated lamb chops for an unspecified time until cooked to desired doneness (the creator mentions they will eat the marinated ones tonight).

9

Serve the grilled lamb chops over risotto.
