Instructions
To begin, preheat your oven to 375ºF.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside for now.
Combine the jelly and Worcestershire sauce in a small saucepan and heat over low temperature. Melt the jelly to create a simple glaze. Once they are melted together, turn off the heat.
Meanwhile, slice the peppers into strips, discarding the stems and seeds.
Cut the onion into thin strips, discarding the skin.
Slice the yellow squash into disks, about 1/4 inch thick.
Cut the lemon into 8 wedges.
Place the sliced vegetables into a mixing bowl and drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil. Add in the salt and pepper.
Squeeze two of the lemon wedges into the bowl, and add in allof the wedges. Toss everything together to coat them well.
Spread the vegetables on your prepared baking sheet.
Arrange the lamb chops on the sheet as well.
Brush the lamb chops with some of the glaze mixture.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, brushing the chops a second time with glaze, half way through.
The internal temperature for lamb chops is what determines the doneness of the meat, just like any other that you are cooking. You’ll simply test it with a meat thermometer. For medium rare, you will roast the meat to an internal temperature of 145ºF. For medium you will go with 160ºF, and for well done you will want 170ºF.
Once the lamb chops are done roasting, let them rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.
