Ingredients

• 8 pieces lamb chops
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 sliced lemon (for garnish, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Remove the lamb chops from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 10 minutes. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 2

Season both sides of the lamb chops with kosher salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add the lamb chops to the skillet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.

Step 5

Sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes on one side until nicely browned, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time if you prefer more or less doneness.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic, rosemary sprigs, and thyme sprigs to the skillet during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Stir the garlic to prevent burning.

Step 7

Add the butter to the skillet and spoon the melted butter over the lamb chops to baste them for added flavor.

Step 8

Remove the lamb chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Garnish with lemon slices (optional) and serve warm.
