These gut-loving lamb chops are a delicious and healthy way to get your daily dose of probiotics. The lamb is marinated in a flavorful blend of olive oil, rosemary, and thyme, then roasted to perfection. While the lamb is roasting, you can sauté some carrots, celery, and onion to serve on the side. The combination of the lamb and vegetables is a great way to get a variety of nutrients, including protein, fiber, and vitamins.
I first came up with this recipe when I was trying to find a way to make lamb chops that were both delicious and healthy. I had been reading about the benefits of probiotics, and I wanted to find a way to incorporate them into my diet. I decided to marinate the lamb chops in a blend of olive oil, rosemary, and thyme, which are all known to be gut-healthy ingredients. I then roasted the lamb chops in the oven until they were cooked to perfection. While the lamb chops were roasting, I sautéed some carrots, celery, and onion to serve on the side. The combination of the lamb and vegetables was a hit with my family and friends, and I've been making it ever since.
