For the Ladolemono:
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon dry oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dry parsley
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly-cracked black pepper
For the Grilled Lamb Chops:
- 8 lamb rib chops
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly-cracked black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon dry red chili flakes
For the Ladolemono:
In a mason jar, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, parsley, salt and pepper. Seal tightly with a lid and shake vigorously until emulsified. Taste for seasoning and adjust with lemon juice, salt and pepper as desired.
For the Grilled Lamb Chops:
In a bowl, combine the lamb chops, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper and chili flakes. Toss to coat, cover and refrigerate 1 to 4 hours.
Preheat your Traeger Grill to 500F (if using the ModiFire Sear Grate, preheat to 475F). If using a conventional grill, preheat to medium-high direct heat.
Place the lamb chops onto the grill and cook, undisturbed, until grill marks form, around 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other sides until grill marks form and the thickest part of each chop registers 135F for a medium center, around 3 more minutes. Transfer the lamb chops to a serving platter and let them rest at least 5 minutes before serving with the Ladolemono sauce and Spanakorizo (see recipe above).
