Ingredients

• 2 pieces (6-8 oz each) Lamb steaks
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Remove the lamb steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.

Step 2

Season both sides of the lamb steaks with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Pat the seasonings gently to adhere to the meat.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, rosemary, thyme, and lemon zest. Stir until well combined. Cover and set aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 5

Place lamb steaks in the skillet, ensuring they do not touch. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side without moving, until a golden-brown crust forms.

Step 6

Flip the lamb steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until desired doneness is achieved (medium-rare reaches about 135°F/57°C with a meat thermometer).

Step 7

Reduce heat to low, add 1 tablespoon of the garlic herb butter to the skillet, and spoon the melted butter over the steaks for 1 minute.

Step 8

Remove lamb steaks from the skillet and place them on a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.

Step 9

Serve the lamb steaks hot with a dollop of the remaining garlic herb butter on top.
