Leave the chops to sear on the second side for about a minute, then push them to one side and toss in butter, garlic and rosemary. Be careful, as it may splatter.

As soon as the butter is melted, continuously spoon the butter over the chops until it’s cooked to your liking. Usually about ⏱️ 2-3 minutes total on the second side. I also like to sear the edges of the chops as well.
