Directions
Step 1
1. Preheat your broiler to high, and position the oven rack about 4-6 inches from the heating element.
Step 2
2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, kosher salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to make a marinade.
Step 3
3. Pat the venison chops dry with paper towels, then brush the marinade generously over both sides of each chop.
Step 4
4. Place the venison chops on a broiler pan or a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to allow for air circulation and even cooking.
