Ingredients

4	lamb chops (about 1" thick)
2	bundles of green onions
1	tablespoon olive oil
2	large cloves of garlic
½	cup fresh parsley leaves
½	cup fresh mint leaves
¼	cup fresh tarragon leaves
3	tablespoons white wine vinegar
4	tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

• 1. Preheat the grill to a medium-high heat, around 400-450 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Begin by patting the lamb chops dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper to your preference. Brush the green onions with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Set them aside.
  3. Grill the lamb chops to your desired level of doneness, approximately 4-5 minutes per side for a medium-rare result.
  4. Grill the green onions for about 2 minutes, then flip and grill for an additional 2 minutes until they have grill marks and start to wilt. Once done, transfer the lamb chops and green onions to a cutting board or platter. Tent with foil and allow them to rest for 4-5 minutes before serving.
  5. Drizzle the prepared mint chimichurri sauce over the grilled lamb chops and green onions just before serving.
