Ingredients
Scale
4 lamb chops (about 1 inch thick)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup breadcrumbs (preferably Panko for extra crunch)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, combine the parsley, rosemary, thyme, garlic, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Season the lamb chops generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Press the herb mixture onto one side of each lamb chop, ensuring an even coating for maximum flavor.
In an oven-safe skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the lamb chops, herb side down, and sear for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Flip the lamb chops and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; 145°F (63°C) is ideal for medium-rare.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Arrange the lamb chops on a serving platter and serve with lemon wedges for an added burst of flavor.
