The Silence of the Lamb Chops.

I picked ups some beautiful lamb chops for this weekend.

How should I cook them.

The below is for informational purposes only. Your purchase may vary:

Season with ground rosemary and a liberal amount of kosher salt. Sear both sides in cast iron with a little butter on extremely high heat, toss in oven on 350 for a couple minutes to desired doneness.

This, only I would add fresh crushed garlic to the fresh chopped rosemary.

Cook until medium rare.

Yeah. Usually what I do if I am using fresh herbs is I make a paste out of chopped rosemary, garlic, and butter. Then I season the chops with salt and pepper and sear them. After searing them I put a little gob of the herb/garlic paste on top of each chop when I toss it in the oven to finish cooking.

I'm liking this one.

this sounds good with pork chops too. now Im hungry.
 
Seared and finished in the oven is great as it sear, put rosemary/garlic paste and toss in oven. Try to pick up some mint jelly. It REALLY is an awesome combination. We eat lamb at least 2-3 times a month. Whatever you do, don't overcook them.

Mint jelly is the classic accoutrement in the English tradition, and was the way we enjoyed lamp chops at my house growing up, but, really, a tiny bit of most any jelly on the side will do.

It's the classic "sweet" balancing and highlighting the "savory." Once you understand the underlying principle, feel free to experiment and substitute with whatever you have in your larder.
 
I vote olive oil instead of butter, but if you're going to sear it at high temps you may want to change that to canola.
