Lemon Garlic Butter Lamb Chops

Ingredients:

8 lamb chops (about 1-inch thick)
3 tbsp unsalted butter
4 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
1 tsp fresh thyme (chopped)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
1 tbsp olive oil

Directions:

Step

: Season the Lamb Chops
Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Step

: Sear the Lamb Chops
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the lamb chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside.
Step

: Make the Garlic Butter Sauce
Lower the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in rosemary, thyme, and lemon juice.
Step

: Coat the Lamb Chops
Return the lamb chops to the skillet. Spoon the garlic butter sauce over the chops and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping once, until they reach your desired doneness (135°F/57°C for medium-rare).
