Step 1
Pat lamb steaks dry with a paper towel. Season generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sear lamb 90 seconds per side without moving. Edges should look opaque; center stays pink and juicy.
Step 4
Reduce heat to medium. Add smashed garlic and rosemary sprigs to the pan. Let sizzle 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 5
Drizzle remaining 2 tbsp oil and the vinegar over lamb. Squeeze half a lemon over everything.
Step 6
Slide lamb onto plates. Spoon warm garlic oil over top. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
