Pat the lamb chops dry with a paper towel and place them in a shallow dish.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over the lamb chops and let them marinate at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a medium-sized pot of salted water to a boil and prepare an ice water bath in a large bowl. Add the waxed beans to the boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes, until crisp-tender. Quickly transfer the beans to the ice water bath to stop the cooking process, then drain and set aside.
Heat a large, heavy-bottom skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil to the skillet and sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove the lamb chops from the skillet, cover loosely with foil, and let them rest.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Melt the butter and add the cooked waxed beans. Toss the beans to coat them in the butter, then add water, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through.
Stir in the chopped dill and season the beans to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
To serve, place a portion of the dilled waxed beans on each plate and top with a seared lamb chop. Garnish with extra dill, if desired, and serve immediately.
