How to make grilled lamb

First of all, take the ribs out of the fridge, do not wash them at all, and with the help of a meat mallet, beat the knot of meat on the ribs to flatten them slightly.

Finally, place the cutlets in a baking dish, add oil, pepper, fresh rosemary, chopped garlic and massage well on all sides, so that it is fragrant:

Then leave marinate at room temperature for 30 – 35 minutes

Attention, this step is very important, to avoid thermal shock, i.e. the cold meat curling when in contact with the hot grill, as well as to better regulate the cooking times, the lamb inside must be soft, tender and not cold. !


Perfectly cooked lamb

Finally, after the indicated time, touch the meat, which must be at room temperature, give it another stir then heat a grill with grooves for 3 – 4 minutes

Why is it better to use a grill and not the smooth plate? Because the lines of the grill allow the meat to remain raised from its cooking liquid. This will promote a golden crust on the surface.

Place the cutlets (without garlic and rosemary) only when the grill is actually hot

Then let it cook for 2 – 3 minutes on each side. Don’t turn before 2 minutes otherwise they won’t be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Minute more or less depends on the size of the pieces.

You will realize that they are cooked perfectly when they are golden brown and the meat does not drip red or blood. Salty.

Here’s yours ready Grilled lamb
