Herb Butter Lamb Chops

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

• 5-6 bone-in lamb chops, room temp
• salt and pepper
• 2 Tbsp oil
• 1 Tbsp butter
• 1 Tbsp dried mint
• 1 Tbsp dried parsley
• squeeze of lemon or drizzle of any vinegar

Steps:

1. It's important to let your chops come to room temperature before searing for even cooking throughout. Sprinkle all over with some salt and pepper.

 
2. Place one tablespoon of oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add chops. Cook for 3-6 minutes on first side, depending on thickness of your chops.

3. Flip over and cook another 3-6 minutes. My lamb chops were quite thick, so I added a couple tablespoons of water to the pan and covered it with a lid. I cook mine to about an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.

 
4. Transfer chops to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Switch pan heat to low. Add other tablespoon of oil and one tablespoon of butter to the pan and swirl around the lamb's juices.

 
5. Add the dried herbs and cook for a minute, stirring constantly. Shut off heat and stir in a squeeze of lemon or drizzle of vinegar. I used balsamic vinegar.

6. Spoon the herb butter over the lamb chops. Serve immediately.
