Ingredients:
For the Lamb Chops:
- 4 lamb chops (about 1-inch thick)
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups cubed butternut squash
- 1 cup Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a shallow bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme.
- Brush the lamb chops on both sides with the 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then generously season with salt and pepper.
- Dredge the lamb chops in the herb-breadcrumb mixture, pressing it onto the meat to help it adhere.
- Place the coated lamb chops on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash, Brussels sprouts, and sliced red onion with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet, creating an even layer.
- Roast the lamb chops and vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness (about 145°F for medium-rare) and the veggies are tender and golden brown.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the lamb chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve the Herb-Crusted Lamb Chops alongside the roasted vegetables, and enjoy this delicious, sophisticated yet easy weeknight meal!
