How To Cook Lamb Chops
Don’t feel like grilling? Make these lamb chops on the stovetop too! Sear each side of the chops in a hot cast iron skillet for 4 to 5 minutes over medium-high heat until desired internal temperature is reached. Make sure your chops are about 1-inch thick. Thicker chops mean you can get a great sear without overcooking the meat. The caramelized bits on the outside add so much flavor. Use an instant-read meat thermometer to get the perfect cook on the lamb chops.
