4 lamb shoulder chops, excess fat trimmed (about 2 lbs. total)
Kosher salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 onion, peeled and slivered
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
2 lemons
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/3 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 cup pitted green olives, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

1
Season lamb chops with salt and pepper. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Swirl in oil. Add chops and brown on both sides, 8 to 10 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
2
Reduce heat to medium-low and add onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 minutes. Zest and juice 1 lemon; set juice aside. Add zest, garlic, paprika, coriander, and cumin to pan and stir until fragrant, 1 minute.
3
Add wine to pan, raise heat to medium-high, and cook, scraping up browned bits, until liquid is almost evaporated, 2 minutes. Stir in broth, lemon juice, pumpkin puree, and olives. Let come to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Return chops to pan. Cut 6 thin slices from remaining lemon and place a slice on top of each chop. Cover pan tightly and cook until chops are tender, 15 to 18 minutes.
4
Sprinkle chops with parsley and cilantro, then spoon onto plates and drizzle with more oil.
