    Ingredients

    • 1 rack of lamb cut into 8 chops
    • Fustini's Robust SELECT olive oil
    • Kosher salt
    • freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 cup loosely packed parsley
    • 1/2 cup loosely packed mint
    • 1/2 cup Fustini's Gremolata olive oil
    • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • 1 1/2 tablespoons Fustini's Vinoso vinegar
    • 1 garlic clove

    Lemon Parsley Rice

    • 1 cup rice
    • 1 tablespoon Fustini's Meyer Lemon olive oil
    • 2 cups water
    • 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
    • 1 teaspoon cumin
    • juice from 1/2 a lemon
    • salt to taste

    Directions

    1. Season lamb chops generously with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper and brush lightly with olive oil. Grill lamb chops to desired doneness (145°,F for a nice medium-rare/medium pink center). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
    2. Meanwhile, make the mint chimichurri. Pulse parsley, mint, Gremolata olive oil, lemon juice, Vinoso vinegar, and garlic in a food processor until uniformly chunky. Do not over-process it to a pesto-like consistency. Season generously with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
    3. Add rice to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and sauté, lightly. Add water and continue to cook according to package directions. When done, fluff with a fork, toss in cumin, fresh parsley and garnish with a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with lamb chops and chimichurri sauce.
