Categories     Dinner

Time 42m

Number Of Ingredients 8

8-9 bone-in lamb loin chops, about 1-inch thick
2 teaspoons kosher salt adjust as needed
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil, for the pan
4 tablespoons salted butter
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Let the lamb chops sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. Pat dry and season the lamb chops with salt and pepper on all sides.
  • Heat a large cast iron skillet or other heavy pan on medium-high heat until very hot. Add the olive oil and heat for a minute, then carefully place the lamb chops in the pan, leaving a little space between them.
  • Cook for 3-4 minutes until seared on the bottom side, then flip with tongs and cook another 3-4 minutes on the other side to sear.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter, garlic, rosemary and thyme. Spoon the melted butter, garlic, and herbs over the lamb chops while continuing to cook for about 5 more minutes or until the temperature on a digital meat thermometer inserted into the meaty part of the lamb chops reaches 125 degrees F for medium-rare. See notes for additional information about cooking temperatures and degrees of doneness.
  • Remove from the lamb chops from the heat, cover with a piece of foil, then let the meat rest for 10 minutes before serving.
