- 5 Lamb Chops
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt or to taste
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper or to taste
- 2 Tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 Large Head of garlic
- 15 Thai Peppers Optional
- 1 Cup White wine or chicken broth
- 3 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- ¼ Cup Cilantro or parsley
Season the lamb with salt, pepper, and thyme, and let it rest at room temperature for no more than an hour.
Heat the olive oil until shimmering in a Sauté Pan. Add the garlic and lamb chops. Cook on Medium high heat until the lamb chops are browned on the bottom, about 4 minutes.
Flip the lamb chops and garlic, browning the garlic on one side. Remove the garlic and cook the lamb chops for about 2 ½ more minutes for medium rare.
Transfer the lamb chops to plates. Add the garlic and Thai peppers back to the sauté pan.
Add lemon juice, wine, or chicken broth to the Saute Pan. If you don't have wine or chicken broth, you may use water instead. Cook the mixture while scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pan. The dish is ready when it starts to sizzle, which usually takes about 1-2 minutes. To thicken the sauce add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch mixed in water.
Pour the garlic lemon sauce over the lamb chops. Serve and Enjoy!!!!!
