Instructions

  1. Season the lamb chops with salt and black pepper. Sear in a hot pan with 1 tablespoon olive oil for 2 minutes per side. Remove and brush the top of each chop with Dijon mustard.
  2. Mix panko breadcrumbs with 1 tablespoon olive oil, finely chopped garlic, and a pinch of salt. Press the crumb mixture firmly onto the mustard-coated side of each chop.
  3. Place the crusted lamb chops on a baking sheet and roast at 200C (400F) for 10-12 minutes for medium-rare. Rest for 5 minutes.
  4. While the lamb rests, prepare the gremolata by finely chopping fresh mint and fresh parsley, mixing with minced garlic, lemon zest, and remaining olive oil. Spoon the gremolata over the lamb chops.
