Garlic Parmesan Fried Lamb Chops

1. Prepare the Lamb Chops

Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels. This is important—it helps get that crispy crust later.

Season both sides generously with:

  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Paprika
  • Garlic powder
  • Onion powder
  • Oregano
  • Thyme

Let them sit for 10–15 minutes so the flavors absorb.

2. Make the Parmesan Coating

In a bowl, mix:

  • Grated Parmesan
  • Flour
  • Minced garlic

This mixture will create a crispy, cheesy crust.

3. Coat the Lamb

Lightly drizzle the lamb chops with olive oil, then press each chop into the Parmesan mixture.
Make sure both sides are evenly coated.

4. Heat the Pan

Place a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add:

  • Olive oil
  • Butter

Let it heat until hot but not smoking.

5. Fry the Lamb Chops

Place lamb chops in the pan (don’t overcrowd).

Cook:

  • 3–4 minutes per side for medium
  • Adjust depending on thickness and preferred doneness

You’re looking for a golden, crispy crust.

6. Add Garlic Butter Flavor

In the last minute of cooking:

  • Add a little extra minced garlic and butter
  • Spoon the melted garlic butter over the chops

This step adds incredible richness.

7. Rest & Serve

Remove from heat and let the chops rest for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and a little extra Parmesan if you like.
