  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened spreadable but not really mushy
  • 1 green garlic or small garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • sea salt or kosher salt
  • fresh cracked black pepper
  • 4 russet potatoes
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into chunks
  • 3 green garlic, or 1 fat garlic clove, minced
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped
  • ½ cup crème fraiche
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half and half
  • sea salt or kosher salt
  • fresh cracked black pepper

Lamb Chops

  • 4 double-cut lamb chops (8 ribs total)
  • olive oil
  • sea salt or kosher salt
  • fresh cracked black pepper
  • 8 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 4 small sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 8 slices lemon thin slices
  • 4 garlic cloves, slivered
  • pinch of dried lavender (optional)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Prepare the garlic herb butter by mixing softened butter, minced green garlic, lemon zest, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Peel and cut the russet potatoes, then boil them in salted water until tender.
  • Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add unsalted butter, minced green garlic, fresh thyme, crème fraiche, and heavy cream. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
  • For the lamb chops, preheat the grill. Rub the chops with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Place thyme, rosemary, lemon slices, and slivered garlic on top of the lamb chops.
  • Grill lamb chops on medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, basting with any leftover oil.
  • Let the lamb chops rest for a few minutes after grilling. Serve hot with garlic herb butter and mashed potatoes.

Notes

For best flavor, let the garlic herb butter sit at room temperature for at least one hour before serving.
