• Lamb or Beef: These are the main components, chosen for their rich flavor and texture.
• Marinade (optional): Olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, rosemary, and thyme—marinades help tenderize the meat and add flavor.
• Salt and Pepper: Essential seasonings to bring out the meat’s natural flavors.
• Vegetables (optional): Bell peppers, zucchini, or onions can be grilled alongside for a balanced meal.

Fresh Herbs: Garnish with herbs like parsley or rosemary for extra freshness and presentation.

1. Marinate the Meat (Optional): Combine olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, herbs, salt, and pepper. Let the meat marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
2. Preheat the Grill: Heat the grill to medium-high. For a gas grill, preheat for 10-15 minutes. Ensure the coals are evenly distributed for charcoal grills.
3. Prepare Vegetables (Optional): If grilling vegetables, chop them into uniform pieces, toss in olive oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Grill the Meat: Remove the meat from the marinade and bring it to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Grill lamb chops for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare or beef steaks for 5-7 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
5. Grill the Vegetables: Add vegetables to the grill during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking, turning them occasionally.
6. Rest the Meat: Let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to retain the juices.
