Lamb Steaks With Crispy Potatoes Minted Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Toss the potatoes and garlic with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a microwave-safe dish. Spread in as even a layer as possible. Add the lemon juice and chicken broth, cover with plastic wrap and microwave 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the potatoes and liquid to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Roast in the oven, uncovered, until the potatoes are light golden and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, season the lamb chops with salt, pepper and the oregano. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil with 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add the lamb chops and cook, basting occasionally with a large spoon, about 4 minutes per side for medium doneness. Transfer the lamb chops to a plate to rest; tent with foil.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in another large skillet over medium heat and add the peas. Cook until heated through, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, season with salt and pepper and stir in the mint.
• Divide the lamb chops, potatoes and peas among plates. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the barbecue, if using, and let the flames die down a little. Sprinkle the lamb with lemon juice, a little oil, rosemary and seasoning. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a pan, add the onion and fry for 5 mins until softened. Add the garlic and tomatoes and fry until the tomatoes are just softened but not pulpy. Stir in the beans and heat through.
• Meanwhile, cook the lamb on the barbecue for 3-4 mins each side, or use a hot griddle pan. Roughly chop the coriander, if using, and scatter over the beans to serve.
