Herb-Crusted Lamb Chops: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 16 minute

Ingredients

– 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

Creating Herb-Crusted Lamb Chops can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Herb Mixture: In a bowl, combine the parsley, rosemary, thyme, garlic, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
3. Season Lamb Chops: Season the lamb chops generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
4. Coat Lamb Chops: Press the herb mixture onto one side of each lamb chop, ensuring an even coating for maximum flavor.
5. Sear Lamb Chops: 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.
6. Transfer to Oven: 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.
7. Check Internal Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; 145°F (63°C) is ideal for medium-rare.
8. Rest the Lamb: Remove the skillet from the oven and let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain the juices.
9. Plate and Serve: Arrange the lamb chops on a serving platter and serve with lemon wedges for an added burst of flavor.

These steps will guide you in creating these incredible herb-crusted lamb chops effortlessly.
