Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to the broil setting to prepare for high-heat cooking.
- Prepare Rack and Baking Sheet: Place a wire rack inside a large baking sheet to allow heat circulation around the lamb chops.
- Arrange Lamb Chops: Place the lamb chops evenly spaced on the wire rack to promote even cooking.
- Broil on Lower Rack: Position the baking sheet on the lower oven rack and broil the lamb chops for 6 minutes to start forming a crust.
- Broil on Top Rack: Move the baking sheet to the top oven rack and broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to achieve perfect browning and crust.

- Using a wire rack ensures even heat distribution and prevents the chops from sitting in their own juices.
- Resting the meat after cooking is essential for juicy and tender lamb chops.
