INGREDIENTS

5 oz lamb loin chops

0.25 tsp olive oil

1 tbsp fresh rosemary

1 tbsp fresh thyme

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.5 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup green beans

1 tbsp fresh mint

1 tsp lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Finely mince the rosemary, thyme, and garlic, then combine them in a small bowl with the sea salt and black pepper.

• 2

  Pat the lamb loin chops dry with a paper towel and press the herb mixture firmly onto both sides of each chop to create a thick coating.

• 3

  Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

• 4

  Add the lamb chops to the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, ensuring a golden-brown crust forms.

• 5

  While the lamb rests for 5 minutes, steam the green beans until tender-crisp and warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a separate pan.

• 6

  Finely chop the fresh mint and whisk it together with the lemon juice in a small ramekin.

• 7

  Arrange the lamb chops over a bed of quinoa and green beans, then drizzle the zesty mint sauce over the meat before serving.
