Ingredients
2 pounds (908 g) lamb chops, cut ¾” thick, 4 pieces
Kosher salt, for seasoning
Black pepper, for seasoning
1 tablespoon (10 g) minced garlic
2 teaspoons chopped rosemary
2 teaspoons chopped thyme
½ teaspoon chopped parsley
¼ cup (60 ml) extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Instructions
Marinate the Lamb Chops – Season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Combine garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small bowl. Rub the paste on both sides and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
Sear the Surface – Heat a large 12″ cast iron skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Once hot, add the lamb chops and sear until the surface is browned, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Check For Doneness – Flip and cook until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (51°C) for medium-rare, or 135°F (57°C) for medium on a meat thermometer, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Rest the Meat – Rest the chops for 10 minutes before serving.
