Bright and fresh lamb chops marinated with lemon zest and herbs, then grilled or pan-seared.
Ingredients

- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed

Directions
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first eight ingredients; add the chops. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
