Instructions

1

Marinate the Lamb

Combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub this mixture all over the lamb chops and let them marinate at room temperature for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

2

Prep the Vegetables

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a large sheet pan with aluminum foil. Toss the cherry tomatoes and zucchini half moons with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them across the sheet pan.

3

Roast Together

Nestle the marinated lamb chops among the vegetables on the sheet pan. Roast for 18 to 20 minutes for medium doneness, or until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 145 degrees F. The tomatoes should be blistered and bursting.

Rest and Plate

Transfer the lamb chops to a cutting board and tent loosely with foil. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. Plate with the roasted vegetables and spoon over the pan juices.

Common mistakes
