My boyfriend looooooves lamb so I thought I'd try this recipe, he didn't care for it whatsoever. I won't be making this recipe again.

Wow, never made lamb before, and all involved agree better than anything we have had in a restaurant! #1, only marinated 4 hours with olive oil and 4 more with wine added! Everything else went smoot and easy!

It was ok but it was to much oil. It wasn't my favourite way of cooking lamb chops. Don't think I make it again though.

I was very disappointed. The flavor of the wine clashed with the lamb and it wasnt tender at all. Perhaps it was the brand of wine and the cut of meat. I dont recommend this.

My husband brought home lamb chops..hmmm. Had tried ground lamb and didn't really care for it, so I hoped that by using a good recipe we'd enjoy chops. No such luck! It was pretty nasty, as they were greasy, tough and very fatty. On the positive, the seasoning was good, perhaps beef would be better. The kids put on a brave face as we laughed thru dinner (while baa-ing), but we ended up feeding them to the dog.

Tender, juicey, and flavorful all describe this recipe. My husband went crazy for these and my 80 year old father said they were the best he had ever eaten!

I was really excited after reading the reviews for this. I have made lamb with wine before and didn't think there was much risk. I wasn't impressed at all and won't be making again, I have to agree with the previous reviews; waste too much olive oil and the combination of thyme and red wine did nothing for me. Sorry.

Made only a couple of changes - roasted the garlic with olive oil and Italian Herbs. I mixed the olive oil and red wine together, added the oil from the garlic and a dash more Italian Herbs. I had two racks of baby lamb, so I split them, rubbed them with the roasted garlic and marinated them for about 5 hours. They were awesome. Made an easy port/red wine sauce to go with. Thanks Cassandra! This was my first go at lamb - great base recipe!

This recipe wasn't bad, but the combination of red wine and thyme didn't work for me. I'll probably make it again, but won't put in the thyme next time. Also, I used about half the amount of olive oil in the recipe over three lamb chops (in a really small dish), and it was just fine. Personally I can't afford to be marinating things in massive quantities of olive oil and throw that precious oil away the next day!

I cooked this for my boyfriend and roommate on Valentine's Day and we all loved it! It was easy to make and was extremely tender. I will definitely make this again and have already received requests to cook it.

My husband loves lamb so I thought I would give this a try. It was very easy to make and my husband loved it...I will definitely make it again. I made 4 chops instead of 2, but didn't change the amount of garlic, used the same amount of oil and just poured the wine in until it covered the chops.

I've been vegetarian for nearly 15 years and I've never cooked meat in my life -- I've never even touched raw meat. Making this recipe was my first attempt at cooking meat, and let me tell you I was totally PARANOID about cooking the meat properly. I made this for my meat-eating fiancee. Not only was this recipe incredibly easy to make, my fiancee says it's the best lamb recipe he's ever eaten at home, and second only to one he had in a restaurant. Very moist and flavourful.

These lamb chops were wonderful. I roasted my garlic with dill and rosemary and retained those herbs when I marinated them. The wine gave them a lovely, and not overpowering flavor. I made some mint sauce and broiled them. GREAT!
