Sear the lamb chops for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked to your desired doneness.

Remove the lamb chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate, tenting loosely with foil to keep warm.

Reduce the heat to low and add the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese to the same skillet.

Stir the cheese gently until it melts into a smooth, creamy sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Note
For best results, use rack of lamb or loin chops cut into individual portions.
If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of heavy cream or milk to thin it out to your desired consistency.
Substitute Gorgonzola with Roquefort or Stilton if preferred, for a slightly different flavor profile.
Serve immediately while the cheese is still melted and the lamb is hot.
