Goes great with, I dunno, nothing, it's amazing on it's own.
6 lamb chops
10-15 baby carrots
3 oranges (1 with strips of zest removed, juice of all 3)
8 cloves garlic
bunch fresh thyme
Score fat and season lamb chops with salt and pepper
Put chops skin side down in pan on med-high heat to render the fat and crisp up (~5 min)
Add carrots and garlic to the pan
Flip chops onto their sides and cook about 2 minutes on each side
Add thyme and peeled orange zest strips and toss for about 30 seconds (until fragrant)
Remove chops to a plate to rest
Add orange juice to pan and let juice bubble and cook down to a glaze
Return chops to pan and quickly toss with carrots, garlic and orange glaze
