Ingredients

2 Lamb Saddle Loin Chops
50 g Greek-Style Feta Cheese , crumbled
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh oregano, finely chopped
1/2 tbsp fresh thyme, finely chopped
1/2 lemon (for zest & juice)
1 tbsp 50 g olive oil
Salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

In a small bowl, create the marinade by mixing the minced garlic, chopped herbs, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Rub this marinade generously over the lamb chops well coated.
Cover and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or overnight for a more intense flavor.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In another bowl, prepare the feta crust by combining the crumbled feta cheese with a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of black pepper.

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add a bit of olive oil.
Sear the lamb chops for about 2 minutes on each side, until the crust turns golden-brown.
Remove the skillet from heat and carefully top each lamb chop with the feta mixture, pressing down gently to secure.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for about 8-10 minutes, or until the lamb reaches your desired level of doneness (135°F/57°C for medium-rare).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the lamb chops with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh Greek salad.
