Grill Pan Lamb Chops

I never liked lamb chops thinking they
tasted strong but today's lambs are not as
old as years ago and don't have that gamey taste.

Ingredients:
2 large garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Pinch cayenne pepper
Coarse sea salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 lamb chops, about 3/4-inch thick

Directions:
In a food processor add the garlic,
rosemary, thyme, cayenne, and salt.
Pulse until combined.
Pour in olive oil and pulse into a paste.
Rub the paste on both sides of the lamb chops
and let them marinate for
at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Remove from refrigerator and allow
the chops to come to room temperature;
it will take about 20 minutes.

Directions:
Heat a grill pan over high heat
until almost smoking,
add the chops and sear for about 2 minutes.
Flip the chops over and cook for
another 3 minutes for medium rare
and 3 1/2 minutes for medium.
