🌿 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
🌿 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
🌶️ 1 teaspoon paprika
🍋 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
🧂 Sea salt and black pepper to taste
🍶 1 tablespoon Browning & Seasoning sauce (optional for color)
🥛 Milk (for soaking, optional)

🧀 1 package Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs cheese spread
🧀 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
🥛 1 cup heavy cream
🌶️ A dash of Tony’s seasoning (optional)

🍞 1 cup breadcrumbs
🧈 2 tablespoons melted butter
🫒 1 tablespoon olive oil
🌿 1 tablespoon assorted herbs (your choice)

🌿 Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1- Prep the Lamb:

If using, soak the lamb chops in milk for at least 30 minutes to help remove any gaminess.
Pat dry and season each chop with thyme, rosemary, paprika, lemon pepper, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

2- Prepare the Cheese Mixture:

In a medium bowl, blend the Boursin cheese, shredded Parmesan, and heavy cream until you achieve a thick yet spreadable consistency. Add Tony’s seasoning for an extra kick if desired.

3- Prepare the Bread Crumb Mixture:

In a separate dish, combine breadcrumbs, melted butter, olive oil, and assorted herbs. Stir until evenly coated.

4- Cook the Lamb Chops:

Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat with a little olive oil.
Add the lamb chops and cook until lightly browned on both sides, approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Drizzle with Browning & Seasoning sauce if using.

5- Assemble with Cheese and Bread Crumbs:

Remove the lamb chops from the pan momentarily and generously spread the cheese mixture over each chop.
Return lamb chops to the pan and sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture on top of the cheese layer.

6- Finish Cooking:

Continue cooking on the stovetop until the cheese has melted and the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

7- Garnish and Serve:

Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley before serving.
