Trim chops of any excess fat and then score the fat on the edges of the chops ... arrange the chops in a marinator or shallow glass baking dish just big enough to hold the chops in a single layer ... in a small bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, rosemary, and garlic ... pour over the chops, turning once to coat both sides ... cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 6 hours ... remove dish from refrigerator 30 minutes to 1 hour prior to grilling ... remove chops from the dish and reserve the marinade ... sprinkle chops with salt and pepper ... oil the grill and grill the chops over medium-hot to hot coals ... after turning, brush the chops with the reserved marinade ... grill to between medium-rare and medium doneness ... plate and serve immediately ...
4 servings
These go great with a Caesar salad, whole skin garlic mashed potatoes, French cut fresh green beans, and a crusty baguette ... oh - and the wine ... if you’ve never tried a cabernet franc, this is THE wine for this meal !
