Make sure that the lamb is brought to room temperature about an hour before grilling. When it is at room temperature, preheat your grill on high heat.
As your grill is heating, evenly distribute half of the salt, pepper and herbs de provence over the lamb chops. Spray some olive oil on them, flip and repeat.
Add the chops to the grill and close the lid. Cook for 2 minutes (approximation based on your grill's heat output), flip and cook for 2 more. Repeat two more times. Remove from the grill once the meat is cooked to medium rare or your preferred temperature.
Cover the lamb chops with foil and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve hot and happy eating!

General Notes:

If you have thicker lamb chops, increase the cooking time. Thinner chops or a very hot grill, decrease the cooking time just a bit.
If you have flare ups on the grill, keep a spray bottle near to tame the flame.
Always check the temperature with a thermometer to ensure your chops are cooked through! 135F is medium-rare...

Alternate Cooking Method:

If you would like, you can cook these lamb chops on the stovetop or in the oven. Here's how:

Stovetop Method: In a large, heavy bottom pan heat some clarified butter. When the fat is hot (it will shimmer), add the seasoned chops to the pan. Allow to cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip with tongs and repeat. Check the temperature and allow to rest.
Oven Method: Preheat the broiler in your oven. Move the rack near the top. Lay the seasoned lamb chops on a lined, rimmed baking sheet. Broil the chops for 2-3 minutes on each side. Check the temperature and enjoy!
