This very tasty and easy marinade for lamb chops can also be used for steaks.

Simple Grilled Lamb Chops

white vinegar

salt

black pepper

garlic

onion, thinly sliced

olive oil

lamb chops

Mix together the vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and olive oil in a large resealable bag until the salt has dissolved. Add lamb, toss until coated, and marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.


Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.


Remove lamb from the marinade and leave any onions on that stick to the meat.  Discard any remaining marinade. Wrap the exposed ends of the bones with aluminum foil to keep them from burning. Grill to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium. The chops may also be broiled in the oven about 5 minutes per side for medium.


Hi! This is Noor and I would just like to add a comment about the recipe. One lady commented about not over marinating the meat and she is right. I actually meant to write in the recipe to marinate for 1 to 2 hours and no more than 2.  I know lamb chops are an expensive cut of meat and what would be more disappointing than to over marinate and have them too salty.  Lastly, if I may suggest to anyone that loves middle-eastern food, I often add 1/8 teaspoon each: cinnamon, allspice and garam masala. They add a delicate flavor that is perfect with the lamb.  
***I tried to submit with no stars and it wouldn't go thru, so I also give them 5 stars!***

I was a little concerned about using vinegar as a marinade here, but took a chance based on the reviews....it was FANTASTIC! We loved these chops and so did our 2 and 5 year old children. They were super-easy to prepare. You HAVE to keep the onions and do this : make a little tray using two layers of  aluminum foil. Spray it with cooking spray and place (drained onions) on it and carefully place tray on grill, alongside the chops. We cooked our chops on med-hi for 8 mins. exactly and in that time the onions cooked and carmelized a bit and man, they were tasty. Next time I will at least double the onions, they were that good.
Also, I would not recommend leaving the chops in any longer than the 2 hours stated in the recipe.

Whoa Sister...Awesome! My hubby and I loved this so much. I usualy use a marinade of: plain yogurt, garlic/ginger paste, fried onions, lemon juice, 1TB oil, 1beef bullion cube, salt & pepper.  But I was looking for something different than  my usual. I prepared as the recipe stated, but only I marinated for an hr instead of 2 as per advice from reviewers and I baked in the oven (in an aluminum foil envelope) at 375 degrees instead of the grill, still the meat was so tender and very well seasoned. This is my menu choice for the month so will be making this for 3 more times on this months dinner menu and for special ocassions in the future. I also live in the Khaleej-UAE and hope to find more recipes posted by this cook. Thanks a million. 

After reading the reviews for this recipe, I decided to give it a try and I wasn't disappointed. It was easy to make - I followed Noor's additional suggestion and added garam masala, allspice and cinnamon which gave an excellent flavour. Because I cooked the lamb on an indoor grill, and I wanted to use the onions as had been suggested, I removed the onions from the marinade and put them in a small skillet for about 10 minutes over medium heat to carmalize. I served them over the lamb chops - yummy. Super recipe Noor - and great added suggestion as well. 

Very good. I made these for my son by request. I used reserved marinade to sautee mushrooms with some fresh mint and served the chops on top of them - excellent. Thanks for the recipe!

A great weekday meal. Light quick easy and tasty. A must try.

I couldn't stop eating this lamb and neither could my whole family! Loved the tanginess and the mild addtl flavor added by the spices. Used a butterflied leg of lamb and cooked on the grill. Put the onions to the side and caramelized - used 2 but next time, I will use 4. Added the spices that Noor suggested - 1/4 tsp each cinnamon, cumin and garam masala. Thank you!

Me and my fiancee loved this recipe!!! would definitely do it again..thanks!!

Wonderful. Unfortunately the cut I bought was too fatty but the meat itself was wonderful. I broiled everything including all the onions. Served with the onions on top. Delicious!

This marinade had a particular tang that I didn't care for.  To be fair, I am pregnant, so maybe that had something to do with my intense dislike.  I also had to broil the lamb much longer than the recipe stated before it was anywhere near edible.  All in all, I was pretty disappointed and probably would not make it again, but I gave it 3 stars to give it the benefit of the (pregnancy) doubt.  

Easy recipe for lamb chops when you’re looking forward to using your grill!
