Pat the lamb chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the Nostimini seasoning, minced garlic, chopped rosemary leaves, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to create a marinade.
Rub the marinade evenly onto both sides of each lamb chop, ensuring they are fully coated, and let them marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the lamb chops to the skillet in a single layer without overcrowding. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time to desired doneness.
Remove the lamb chops from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the lamb chops just before serving for a burst of brightness.
Serve warm with your choice of side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
