lamb chop saucy

Tasty without any of the flavors overpowering anything else.

4 lamb loin chops
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons fresh oregano, finely chopped
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup cognac
salt and pepper to taste

Remove loin chops from the fridge 20-30 minutes before cooking. Season liberally with salt and pepper.

In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil on high until hot. Place the loin chops in the skillet and cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.

Add the butter, cognac, garlic, and fresh herbs to the skillet and swirl/stir until fully melted. Simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes, turn the chops in order to soak up cognac butter sauce. For medium rare, the lamb is done.

Remove from heat, place on plate and drizzle with Cognac butter sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve.
