Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Season the lamb loin chops with sea salt, ground pepper, and oregano, ensuring each chop is evenly coated for maximum flavor. Let them rest for a few minutes to absorb the seasonings.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. This temperature helps create a beautiful sear on the lamb.
  3. Sauté the pressed garlic in the skillet for about a minute while stirring to prevent burning.
  4. Cook the seasoned lamb loin chops in the skillet, allowing them to brown for 4-5 minutes on each side. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F.
  5. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the lamb before serving.
