Pour oil over both sides of chops; rub with herb mixture. , In a large skillet, cook chops over medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°).

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH ROSEMARY SALT

• Mix together the oregano, garlic, lemon zest from 1 lemon, lemon juice and 1/4 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the lamb chops with kosher salt and pepper and add to the marinade, thoroughly coating. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, and up to 6 hours.
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• In the meantime, mix the flaky sea salt, rosemary and remaining lemon zest. Work the mixture with your fingers, releasing the oils from the zest and rosemary. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and place on the direct heat side of the grill. Char on both sides and cook to an internal temperature of 125 degrees F for medium-rare, about 6 minutes. If the lamb chops become too charred, but the internal temperature is still low, move them to the indirect heat side of the grill to finish cooking.

LAMB AND WHITE BEANS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• In a large skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium-high. Season lamb generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Place in skillet; cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side (lamb will finish cooking in step 4). Transfer chops to a plate (keep oil in skillet); loosely cover with aluminum foil, and set aside.
• To skillet, add onion, garlic, rosemary, and red-pepper flakes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion has softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add beans, sun-dried tomatoes, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low; cook until mixture is slightly thickened and saucy, 4 to 6 minutes.

MOROCCAN LAMB CHOPS WITH PRESERVED LEMON GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Rinse lamb and blot dry. Trim as much fat away from rack as possible. Slice between rib bones, all the way through, to yield eight chops per rack. Place in large container.
• Combine Ras el hanout, 2 TBSPs of garlic, minced cilantro and olive oil. You might need more olive oil in order to obtain a smooth slather. Toss lamb chops in mixture and allow to stand at room temp for an hour or so.
• Sprinkle coated lamb chops generously with salt and pepper. Grill over hot fire or broil to desired doneness, only a few minutes per side. When internal temp reaches 130 degrees F, they are medium.
• After removing from cooking source and still hot, sprinkle with lemon juice. (You might get the same result with adding the lemon juice to the marinade mixture before the lamb is cooked).
• Prepare gremolata topping on same day you are serving the lamb. Remove pulp from preserved lemons and discard, keeping the rind. Then thoroughly rinse in cold water and mince finely. Roughly chop parsley leaves. Combine preserved lemon, parsley leaves, and remaining tsp of minced garlic. Sprinkle over lamb chops before serving.
• **************************************************.
• Preserved lemon: I usually start with about 5 lbs of organic lemons, juicing enough of them to yield about a cup. Go for organic ones, otherwise they have a coating of wax on them to preserve shelf life in the supermarket. You will need a glass jar with an air-tight seal. Combine ~ a tablespoon of coriander seed with ~ a tablespoon of fennel seed. Place 1 bay leaf and 1 cinnamon stick in the bottom of glass jar. Have a small bowl of Kosher salt nearby. Slice lemons in quarters ALMOST down to stem end, but leave intact. Place coriander and fennel seed inside lemon and also fill with salt. Place cut side down into glass jar, squeezing as many into the jar as you can. As you squeeze them, some of the lemon juice is released, but not enough to fill the jar. Just continue packing in as many lemons as you can and add additional salt between layers of lemon. Top off with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Then refrigerate for a month before using. I think this is Jamie Oliver's technique, but there are many out there. He has also suggested doing this with other citrus, like limes and mandarin oranges. Meyer lemons work nicely. Some techniques suggest a layer of olive oil on top, and this works well, too. If refrigerated, they last indefinitely.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH ROSEMARY GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Strip 4 rosemary sprigs of needles except for tops, reserving 1/4 cup needles. Thread 3 fig halves onto each rosemary skewer. Press 2 garlic cloves and needles from one of 4 remaining rosemary sprigs into each pork chop. Place pork on a baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
• Heat grill for direct heat (or a grill pan over high). Generously season pork on both sides with salt and pepper, keeping rosemary and garlic pressed into flesh. Brush grates with oil. Grill chops until marked on both sides, about 2 minutes a side. Reduce heat to low, cover grill (or tent with foil, if using a grill pan), and continue cooking until a thermometer inserted into thickest parts of pork (without touching bone) registers 140 degrees, 7 to 10 minutes more. Transfer to a platter and drizzle with 1 tablespoon orange juice. Let rest 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, using a mortar and pestle or food processor, combine reserved rosemary needles with orange zest, remaining 1 tablespoon orange juice, almonds, and oil to form a chunky sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve pork with fig skewers, potatoes, and rosemary gremolata.

ROSEMARY-LEMON BROILED LAMB CHOPS WITH GREMOLATA AND WHITE BEANS, PROSCIUTTO, AND GREENS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• In a shallow dish combine the rosemary, lemon juice, about 3 tablespoons of the EVOO, and one quarter of the chopped garlic. Add the lamb chops and rub the mixture on to both sides of all the chops. Season the chops with salt and pepper and arrange the chops on a broiler pan. Place the chops about 6 to 8 inches from the broiler and cook for 5 minutes on each side. Remove the chops from the broiler and let rest for 5 minutes. While the chops are cooking, prepare the gremolata.
• Make a pile on your cutting board of the lemon zest, one quarter of the chopped garlic, and parsley leaves. Run your knife through the pile until well combined and finely chopped; reserve.
• After you prepare the gremolata, move on to the white beans, prosciutto, and greens. Preheat a large skillet with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO (twice around the pan). Add the remaining chopped garlic, the red pepper flakes, and onion. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the cannellini beans, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and continue to cook for 3 minutes. Turn the heat off and fold in the arugula and prosciutto.
• To serve, divide the cannellini bean mixture among 4 plates, and top that with 2 chops on each portion. Top each chop with a sprinkle of the gremolata.
