Variations:

Herb variations: Feel free to swap rosemary and thyme for other fresh herbs like oregano, mint, or parsley for different flavor profiles.
Spice it up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper to the marinade for a bit of heat.
Grill version: Instead of pan-searing, grill the lamb chops over medium heat for a smoky flavor.
