To begin, heat a tablespoon of the oil in a Dutch oven until very hot, but not smoking. Sear the lamb chops on each side (about 2 minutes each side) and remove to a dish.
Lower the heat to medium low and add in the sliced onion. Sauté the onion until it is tender.
Add in the seasonings and stir together.
Place the chops back in the pot. Pour the beef broth over all. Add in the apricots and honey.
Bring this to a gentle boil and reduce the heat to low.
