Stuffed Onion
Primal Marinated Cuts
Method
Prepare Stuffed Onion
Prepare the Onions
Carefully cut the tops off the large onions and scoop out the insides, leaving a shell. Reserve the onion pulp for another use or discard.
Stuff the Onions
Fill each onion shell with the lamb mixture, pressing down gently to pack it in.
Drizzle with Olive Oil
Drizzle the stuffed onions with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet.
Marinate and Cook Lamb Chops
Prepare Marinade
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Marinate Lamb Chops
Place the lamb chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight for best flavor.
Prepare Charcoal Grill
Prepare your charcoal grill and let the coals get hot.
Grill the Lamb Chops
Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and grill them over direct heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
