DIRECTIONS:

Marinade:

1. Combine salt, pepper, rosemary, olive oil and garlic into food processor.

2. Grind into a paste.

3. Massage marinade into lamb chops.

4. Refrigerate marinated lamb chops for 2 hours-overnight.

Lamb Chops:

1. Drizzle olive oil over hot grill pan.

2. Cook lamb chops on medium-high heat for 4 minutes on each side.

3. Transfer lamb chops in grill pan to a pre-heated broiler set on high.

4. Broil for 3-4 minutes.

5. Remove and serve.

Optional Balsamic Red Wine Reduction:

1. Combine all ingredients into a medium saucepan.

2. Boil for 10-12 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half with a syrupy consistency. Note: If you don't have the consistency you want, you can add a little more sugar.

3. Spoon finished reduction over lamb chops.
