Cook Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
For the lamb and onions:
- 6 Shepherds Pride or Cedar Springs lamb loin chops
- 15 cipollini onions, peeled
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Preparation
1. Place the olive oil and butter for the lamb chops in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Liberally season the lamb chops with salt and pepper.
