Spice Rubbed Lamb Chops with Green Beans

• 1 pound fresh green beans
• 1 small shallot, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
• 1/2 a lemon, juiced
• 2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus extra for seasoning
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus extra for seasoning
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 8 loin lamb chops

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil and salt it generously.
3. Add the green beans, and cook until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Just before beans are done toss in the shallots.
5. Drain and transfer to a serving platter.
6. Drizzle the beans and shallots with olive oil, lemon juice, pine nuts, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
7. Mix the 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon together.
8. Brush each lamb chop lightly with the olive oil and season with the spice mixture.
9. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
10. Cook the chops in the skillet, without crowding until brown and crisp on both sides, about 3 or 4 minutes for both sides.
11. Finish chops in the oven for 1 minute for medium rare, or to desired doneness.
12. Place the lamb chops around the beans and serve.
