Rosemary Lamb Steaks with Quick Bean Stew

July 10

Lamb has always held a sense of celebration for me. Whether it’s in the form of a roast, presented to the dinner table with gusto, or the lamb chops my mom would make as a treat when we were growing up, grilled until the fat went crispy and sprinkled with sea salt. These grilled lamb steaks are so easy to prepare that you don’t have to wait for a special occasion to enjoy them. In fact, this aromatic bean stew enriched with cherry tomatoes and spinach is genuinely only minutes away…

Method

  1. 1. Massage the lamb steak with the olive oil, balsamic, garlic and rosemary and a generous amount of salt and pepper.
  2. 2. In a frying pan over a medium-high heat, fry the lamb steak for a further 1-2 minutes either side. When you turn the steaks, add the tomatoes, beans and chicken stock and bring to a steady simmer.
  3. 3. Add the spinach to the pan and slowly stir through to wilt down. Remove from the heat and season to taste.
  4. 4. Remove the lamb from the pan and slice thinly, serve with the stew.

This dish looks very impressive served to a table. The nettles add a great twist to the mash and the lamb works really well together with the persillade.

If you’ve never BBQ’d lamb before you are totally missing out on one of my favourite flavours. It works particularly well with the smokeyness the BBQ gives and the addition here of lots of wonderful Asian ingredients really heightens that flavour.  Lamb also BBQ’s equally well with a simple studding of rosemary and garlic.
