Ingredients
  • 3 packages of New Zealand Lamb Chops (Costco), excess fat trimmed, sliced into individual chops, seasoned with kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper
  • Salsa Verde:
  • 1 cup each tightly packed fresh basil, Italian parsley, and mint
  • 2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup red wine vinegar
  • 4 extra virgin olive oil packed anchovies
  • 1 tablespoon capers
  • 2 medium garlic cloves
  • Zest of one lemon

Directions
  1. For salsa verde: Purée all ingredients until smooth, ideally with an immersion hand blender. Store in an airtight container untill ready to use.
  2. Place chops into large ziplock bags, pour in enough salsa verde to lightly coat the chops (reserve at least 1/2 a cup of salsa verde). Get as much air out of the bag, seal, and move chops around, rubbing the salsa verde into them. Marinate at least 4 hours or overnight (preferably)
  3. Add about 1/2 cup or so more extra virgin olive oil to leftover salsa verde. Let sit for an hour. With a fine mesh strainer , strain the salsa verde into a small bowl, leaving solids behind, creating an infused oil.
  4. Heat a charcoal grill and grill chops to desired doneness (about 8-10 minutes medium rare)
  5. Drizzle serving platter with salsa verde oil, fan 3 chops on plate. Suggested side: serve with roasted white asparagus topped with peppered fresh goat cheese, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley to finish.
