These Herb Roasted Lamb Chops deliver restaurant-quality flavor with minimal effort. Thick, juicy lamb loin chops are infused with a fragrant blend of fresh thyme, rosemary, garlic and olive oil, then quickly seared and roasted to perfection. The herb crust forms a delicious exterior while preserving the meat's tender, pink center. An elegant yet easy main course that pairs beautifully with roasted vegetables or garlic mashed potatoes.

ED (03/22/25): I feel like this could benefit from some sous vide time.
