Costolette d’agnello «a scottadito» (Roman-Style Lamb Chops)

Total Time1 hour

Ingredients

  • Rib lamb chops about 2-3 per person
  • Lard at room temperature
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Slather the chops with lard and season them generally with salt and pepper. (You can allow them to marinate for 30-60 minutes, but this is not essential.)
  • Slap the chops on a hot grill. Continue grilling, turning the chops from time to time, until they are well done and nicely browned on both sides.
  • Serve nice and hot—remember the name!—with a green salad and, if you like, some pan-roasted potatoes. Beans or green beans would also be lovely accompaniments. Have lemon wedges on the side for those who want them.
