Rub the mixture generously over the lamb chops, ensuring they are well coated.

Let the lamb chops marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

Place the lamb chops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Roast the lamb chops in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.

Remove the lamb chops from the oven and tent with foil for 5-10 minutes to rest.

Garnish with chopped rosemary before serving.
