Quick and easy? Separate each chop and grill with salt and pepper. Probably need to trim a bit of the fat cap off as well but you don’t have to, just be wary of grill flare ups

Well the thing about lamb is you don't want to overcook it, so a lot of recipes aren't super time consuming.

MAX speed would be cutting it into chops.

My mother used to do leg of lamb kabobs

Olive oil, lemon joice, garlic, S&P and oregano. maybe add some cummin

Grill till medium rare and eat like a fricking king

I always herb crust them. Basically chop up fresh herbs (parsley, oregano, etc) and make somewhat of a chopped paste including olive oil, garlic, salt/pepper. Coat the outside and cook directly over the coals.

Take off and cut to lamb lollipops.

Remember to wrap the bone ends with foil or else you will end up with a charcoaled mess of bone ends. Bones go brittle and make a mess.

Cut the cap off. Kosher salt & cracked pepper, foil the bones. Don't put too much of anything. Taste the lamb, not the spice.

Those things are so easy to cook yet so tasty. Take a handful of fresh rosemary, some garlic, olive oil and blend it up. Salt and pepper the rack and spread that herb mixture all over the meat and let set out an hour. Preheat your oven on 450 and put the lamb in a cast iron skillet where the bones are hanging over the edge of the pan. Cook 25 minutes for medium rare. Take out, lightly tent with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes. Then cut your chops like you are cutting baby back ribs. Comes out perfect every time. That high heat renders the fat. I think I’m going to go buy a few racks I’m hungry for lamb now.

I cook them on the Weber kettle. Salt an hour or so ahead of the cook, add pepper later. Pour a chimney starter of lit briquettes on one side of the kettle. I put them behind a couple of fire bricks. Add a couple pieces of cherry wood, which adds a hint of smoke flavor and makes for good color on the meat. Put meat on the other side. Lid on. Start checking meat temps after 30 minutes. I usually pull at about 125.

I like to keep them in groups of 2 for more medium rare meat.

I also sous vide it whole, then part and grill/sear.

But that's not "fast."

I recomend cutting them into chops and searing quickly on a scorching hot grill.
