Method
- Start by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. You want the oil hot but not smoking. This will allow the lamb to sear beautifully.
- Once the oil is ready, carefully place the lamb chops into the skillet. Listen for that satisfying sizzle! Cook them for about three to four minutes on each side, depending on your preferred doneness.
- As the lamb cooks, look for a nice golden-brown crust; this indicates that they’re getting perfectly seared. You can turn them two to three times for even cooking.
- Meanwhile, prepare the asparagus. Steam them until they’re tender, which usually takes around five to seven minutes. You want them to retain a bit of crunch!
- Once the asparagus is ready, drain and place them in a bowl. Add a sprinkle of salt, drizzle some olive oil, and a squeeze of lemon juice. This gives the asparagus a fresh and zesty flavor.
- Once the lamb is cooked to your liking, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is juicy and flavorful.
- Finally, plate the lamb chops alongside the seasoned asparagus. You can serve them hot or at room temperature, depending on your preference.
