Prepare the Garlic and Herb Butter:
1. Roast the Garlic: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the top off a whole head of garlic, exposing the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 45-60 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and caramelized.
2. Make the Herb Butter: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) of softened unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh rosemary, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh thyme, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Prepare the Lamb Chops:
1. Season the Lamb: Pat 12 lamb chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Sear the Lamb: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Assemble and Roast the Lamb Chops:
1. Spread the Herb Butter: Spread the prepared garlic and herb butter evenly over the seared lamb chops.
2. Roast the Lamb: Place the lamb chops in a single layer in a baking dish. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
Make the Mint Sauce:
1. Combine the Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of chopped fresh mint, 1/4 cup of olive oil, 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon of honey, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
2. Serve the Sauce: Drizzle the mint sauce over the roasted lamb chops before serving.
