Step 1
Pat lamb chops dry and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute.
Step 3
Sear lamb chops 2 minutes per side without moving—they should develop a golden-brown crust.
Step 4
Add smashed garlic and rosemary sprigs to the pan around the chops, tilting to coat in oil.
Step 5
Cook 2 more minutes until garlic is fragrant and lamb reaches medium-rare (130°F internal).
Step 6
Squeeze lemon over the chops and serve immediately with pan juices spooned over top.
