Season lamb chops with salt and pepper. Heat 2 Tbsp. olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chops 5 to 7 minutes on each side; remove from pan and keep warm.

Drain fat, leaving any browned bits.

Add remaining oil and onion; cook over medium heat until softened. Stir in zucchini and cook until tender-crisp.

Stir in tomatoes and 2 Tbsp. mint; cook about 1 minute.

Meanwhile, in small saucepan, combine honey, remaining mint, cumin, garlic, 1/4 tsp. salt, and pepper to taste. Cook over low heat until honey is thinned.

To serve, spoon vegetable mixture onto a plate, top with lamb chop and drizzle with honey glaze.
