Ingredients
- 6–8 lamb loin or rib chops
- Salt & black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika

🔥 How to Make Them
- Season the Lamb
Pat chops dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and herbs if using. - Coat
Mix flour and Parmesan together. Lightly dredge each chop in the mixture, shaking off excess. - Pan-Fry
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Cook lamb chops about 3–4 minutes per side (for medium-rare), until golden and crispy. - Garlic Butter Finish
Reduce heat slightly. Add butter and minced garlic to the pan.
Spoon the melted garlic butter over the chops for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. - Rest & Garnish
Let rest 5 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan if desired.
🍽 Serve With
- Creamy mashed potatoes
- Roasted asparagus or green beans
- Garlic bread
