BROILED LAMB CHOP RECIPE - THE RIGHT TEMP TO COOK

Steps:

• Set the oven to broil.
• Place the lamb chops in a bowl. You can wash and dry the lamb chops, first, if you prefer. Lightly season the lamb chops with freshly cracked pepper, fine sea salt, and olive oil and then gently massage the mixture into the meat.
• Place the seasoned chops on a sheet pan that has been greased. Insert the sliced garlic cloves into the lamb chops.
• Remove the leaves from the rosemary plant by placing one hand near the top of the stem and then use your fingers on the opposite hand to scrape down the entire stem from the top to the base. Or, you can simply leave the sprig whole to make it easier to remove later. Take the fresh rosemary leaves and gently roll them between the palms of your hands to release their natural oils. Next, place a few of the freshly pressed rosemary leaves, or the just the whole spring, on top of each of the chops.
• Place the lamb chops into the oven so that they are at least 8 or more inches from the heat source. Allow the lamb chops to broil until they are perfectly medium-rare, or about 8 minutes. For rare chops, about 6 minutes, or about 12 minutes for well-done chops.
• When you are ready to eat the lamb chops, simply remove the garlic halves, brush the rosemary aside with your utensil, and then dig in. Large chunks of cooked garlic can be a bit overpowering to some people, while rosemary, whether fresh or dry, tends to have a woodsy texture that can make it tough to chew. Therefore, you'll want to remove them before indulging in your lamb chops for best results.

• Broil the lamb chops until medium-rare, 4 1/4 minutes per side (4 1/2 minutes for medium). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium doneness. Pour a little of the gravy over the chops and serve.

While the chops are standing, in a small saucepan melt the butter and stir in the zest, the capers, the lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
