Lamb Chops with Black Garlic Sauce

In a shallow dish, combine the 2 tablespoons of olive oil, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Add the lamb chops and let them marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Preheat your oven to 410°F (210°C). While the oven heats, prepare the black garlic sauce: in a bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, crushed black garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, a splash of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set this sauce aside. Arrange the marinated lamb chops in an oven-safe dish and bake them for about 5 to 10 minutes, making sure to turn them halfway through the cooking time. To finish, place the chops under the broiler until they are nicely browned.

Serve the lamb chops immediately, topped with the black garlic sauce. They pair well with steamed potatoes and green beans. Enjoy! This straightforward sauce offers a mild yet surprising flavor, bringing a unique and original touch to your meal. Beyond lamb, you can also drizzle this versatile sauce over rice, bulgur, roasted vegetables, a raw vegetable salad, or even more lamb.
