Ingredients

• 8 pieces lamb chops
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter to the pan. Once the butter is melted and sizzling, place the lamb chops in the pan.

Step 3

Sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare or adjust the cook time to your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 125°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium. Remove from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes.

Step 4

While the chops are resting, prepare the horseradish dill cream. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, prepared horseradish, minced garlic, dill, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, if necessary.

Step 5

Plate the lamb chops and drizzle the horseradish dill cream over them, or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce.

Step 6

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
