Steps:
- Check for doneness: At this point, if you want your lamb chops rare, they are likely cooked enough. If you would like your chops more cooked, you can put them in a 400°F oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or keep them in the hot pan, lower the heat to warm, and cover the pan for a few minutes. Note that rib chops are so small, and cook so quickly, checking for internal temperature with a thermometer can be impractical. For this reason I use the finger test to check the doneness of the chops. That said, if you have an instant read thermometer and want to check thick chops, aim for 125°F for rare, 135°F medium-rare, and 140°F for medium.
- Rest the chops: When done, remove the chops from the pan, cover with foil and let rest 3 to 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dry the lamb chops well and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the oil to the pan and heat until shimmering. Lay chops in the pan and cook, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sides of the lamb registers 125 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. After cooking the lamb on each side, stand it up on it's edges to brown the sides as well, about 2 minutes more. Reduce the heat if needed so the browned bits remaining in the pan don't burn. Remove chops from the skillet and set aside in a warm place.
- Pour off all but 1 1/2 tablespoons fat from the skillet. Add the garlic and cook, tilting the skillet to keep the garlic submerged in the fat, and cook until golden, about 1 minute. Add the wine and rosemary, stirring up browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and simmer over high heat until syrupy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chicken broth and cook until reduced by about half, another 5 to 6 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and briskly whisk in the butter. When the butter has incorporated, whisk in the mustard and heavy cream. Season with additional salt and pepper.
- Serve 2 chops per person with the sauce.

Tips:
- Use high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are evenly marbled and have a good amount of fat. This will help ensure that they are juicy and flavorful.
- Marinate the lamb chops before cooking: Marinating the chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor.
- Cook the lamb chops over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the chops and create a nice crust, while still keeping the inside juicy.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the lamb chops are cooked to your desired doneness: Lamb chops are best cooked to medium-rare or medium, as overcooking will make them tough.
- Let the lamb chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them even more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Lamb chops with garlic rosemary sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion dinner. The lamb chops are juicy and flavorful, while the sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
