0.33 cup Plain Greek yogurt

1 cup Feta cheese

0.25 cup Olive oil + 2 tbsp, divided

8 American lamb loin chops, about 4 oz each

8 tbsp Butter

3 Garlic, minced

4 Thyme

Salt & pepper, to taste

Combine sour cream, 1/4 cup olive oil, and feta cheese in a blender.

Blend until smooth.

Prep chops by drying them with a paper towel, and then seasoning generously with salt and pepper on each side.

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a cast iron skillet, over medium to medium-high heat.

Fry lamb chops in hot oil for 4 minutes until the bottom side is golden brown and seared.

Flip the chops over and place 1 tab of butter on each chop. Add minced garlic and thyme to the hot oil. Stir the garlic quickly so it doesn’t burn. Continue to cook chop for 4 minutes until seared and golden brown.

Top the chops with feta cream sauce.

Additional Resting time of 5 minutes.
