Garlic-Herb Roasted Lamb Chops
Pan-seared and oven-finished lamb chops infused with aromatic rosemary and garlic, served with crisp-tender asparagus for a succulent and savory meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz lamb loin chops
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp fresh rosemary
1 tsp fresh thyme
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 tbsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the lamb chops completely dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme leaves.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large oven-safe cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the lamb chops in the hot skillet and sear for 3 minutes without moving them until a deep golden-brown crust develops.
Flip the chops and immediately top them with the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
Arrange the asparagus spears around the lamb chops in the skillet, tossing them briefly in the pan juices to coat.
Transfer the entire skillet to the oven and roast for 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare doneness.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving to ensure juiciness.
