Ingredients: 2 lamb loin chops (8 oz each, 1½ inches thick); 4 medium fennel wedges (from 1 bulb, cut lengthwise, core intact); ¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped; ¼ cup fresh mint, roughly chopped; ¼ cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped; 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped; 1 medium shallot, roughly chopped; 2 cloves garlic, sliced; ½ cup good olive oil; 3 tbsp lemon juice; 2 tbsp cold butter, cubed; 2 tsp sea salt; 1 tsp cracked black pepper; 1 tsp ground coriander; ½ tsp red pepper flakes

Two thick-cut lamb loin chops, seared in a screaming-hot skillet until a dark mahogany crust forms while the interior stays rosy and juicy. A vibrant emulsion of fresh herbs—cilantro, mint, parsley, dill—bound with lemon juice and good olive oil pools beneath. Charred fennel wedges, slightly collapsed and sweet, flank the meat.
