Add all ingredients (except lamb) in a large sealable plastic bag or a small bowl that you can cover with plastic wrap. This is your marinade.
Add lamb chops to the marinade.
Stir the lamb chops or shake the bag occasionally so all parts are coated in the marinade.
Let the baby lamb chops marinate for about an hour and come to room temperature.
Remove the lamb chops from the bag or baking dish and discard the marinade.
Cook on a lightly oiled grill not directly on the heat or in a cast iron skillet on the grill.
Grill the lamb chops 3-4 minutes on each side on medium-high heat for a rare temperature. Add 2 minutes more to achieve the desired doneness.
For this baby lamb chops recipe, we grill them to medium-rare. If you like to use a digital meat thermometer, it should be no lower than 120º. Be careful with the cooking time as baby lamb chops cook really quickly on the grill.
If you're a lemon fan, you can top the baby lamb chops with lemon zest along with fresh rosemary.
