Lamb Chops with Garlic

Ingredients

• •4 lamb chops, about 1 inch thick
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •2 tbsp olive oil
• •1 tsp dried rosemary
• •1 tsp dried thyme
• •Salt, to taste
• •Black pepper, to taste
• •1 lemon, cut into wedges (for serving)

Instructions

1. 1

   Remove lamb chops from the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, mix minced garlic, olive oil, dried rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

3. 3

   Rub the marinade evenly over both sides of the lamb chops and let them sit while you preheat the skillet.

4. 4

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the lamb chops to the skillet, ensuring they are not crowded.

5. 5

   Sear the lamb chops for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned. Flip them over and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare doneness.

6. 6

   Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature; it should be around 145°F for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time for your preferred doneness.

7. 7

   Once cooked, remove the lamb chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

8. 8

   Serve with lemon wedges on the side to drizzle over the lamb chops.
