Step 1
Pat lamb steaks dry. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sear lamb 2 minutes per side without moving. Center should still feel soft when pressed.
Step 4
Transfer steaks to a warm plate. Add shallot and herb sprigs to the pan, cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour wine into the pan, scrape up brown bits, and simmer 2 minutes. Whisk in mustard and butter until glossy.
Step 6
Return steaks to pan, spoon sauce over top, then squeeze lemon juice over. Serve immediately.
