Lamb Chops infused in Herb Oil and Citrus Scents

I could of not picked a more perfect lamb chop recipe to share with you this Easter...The weather is blissfully beautiful here in sun drenched Kenya and I'm sharing an all time favourite to celebrate with you..In this recipe I feature one of my favourite infused oils coming out of Mountain Oil, produced here in the heart of Timau at the foothills of Mt Kenya. The Herb Oil is packed to the seams with beautifully scented herbs that are going to work so well with my lamb...thyme..rosemary - you can smell the powerful infusion as you unscrew the lid of the bottle and I can already tell this is a very well preserved and developed oil. I'm excited to cook with this as I know it truly is the real thing and not a oil that has skimped on flavour - simply seen by the quantity of herbs clearly on view in the bottle...Give it a try and let me know how this simply, easy but mouth watering recipe comes out for you! #lambchops #outdoorcooking #grilling #perfectkitchensetting
