Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 450°F. Pat lamb chops dry and season generously with salt, pepper, and cumin on both sides.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Sear lamb chops 90 seconds per side without moving until edges brown, then transfer to a sheet pan.

  4. Step 4

    Toss mushrooms and figs with remaining 1 tbsp oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper on the sheet pan around the chops.

  5. Step 5

    Roast until chops reach 130°F internal temp (medium-rare) and mushrooms are golden, about 8 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Squeeze lime juice over everything and serve hot from the pan.
