Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Place 1 large piece heavy-duty aluminum foil vertically on a work surface and 1 large piece heavy-duty aluminum foil horizontally on top, large enough to cover 1 lamb chop and vegetables.
Step 3
Place 1 lamb chop in middle of foil; rub with 1/2 tablespoon garlic, 1/6 rosemary, salt, and pepper. Repeat with remaining chops.
Step 4
Stack 1/6 each mushrooms, carrots, zucchini, and onion on top of each chop. Place 1 tablespoon butter on each chop then drizzle each with 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Top each with 1 square feta cheese.
Step 5
Wrap top piece of foil around lamb chop and vegetables, followed by bottom piece; tightly seal each package.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven until lamb is cooked but still pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
