Ingredients for Lamb Chops with Fresh Herbs and Roasted Figs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
20ml chopped fresh marjoram
900g racks of lamb, trimmed of fat and sinew
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, sliced
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil

How to make Lamb Chops with Fresh Herbs and Roasted Figs
Combine herbs in small bowl. Rub lamb with olive oil, half of chopped herbs, and garlic; cover and chill overnight.
Preheat oven to 218°C. Heat grapeseed oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle lamb with salt and pepper; sear until brown on both sides, 5 minutes total. Transfer lamb to large rimmed baking sheet; roast to desired doneness, about 20 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer lamb to cutting board; let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Maintain oven temperature; reserve baking sheet for figs.
Place figs and thyme sprigs on baking sheet. Sprinkle with remaining herbs and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Roast in oven at 218°C for 10 minutes.
Cut lamb racks into individual chops; arrange on plates and place figs alongside.
