4 anchovy fillets

1 teaspoon chopped lemon zest
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 cup nocoise olive, pitted and coarsely chopped

fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Heat grill to high.
2. Brush lamb chops with oil and season on both sides with salt and pepper and the herbes de Provence, pressing the herbs to adhere. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until slightly charred and cooked to medium-rare doneness. Serve 2 chops per person topped with some of the Tapenade Butter. Garnish with fresh oregano, if desired.

Remove the butter from the refrigerator 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
