Lamb

Side Dish

Method

Prepare the Lamb

  1. 1

    Season the Lamb

    In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a paste.

  2. 2

    Marinate

    Rub the herb and spice paste all over the lamb chops. Drizzle with olive oil and let marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.

Cook the Lamb

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Oven

    Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 4

    Cook the Lamb Chops

    Place the marinated lamb chops on the grill or a baking sheet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 5

    Rest the Lamb

    Once cooked, remove the lamb chops from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Prepare the Side

  1. 6

    Prepare Asparagus

    Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and rinse them under cold water.

  2. 7

    Season Asparagus

    In a bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 8

    Cook Asparagus

    Place the seasoned asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the oven (or grill alongside the lamb) for about 10-12 minutes, or until tender.

  4. 9

    Add Lemon

    Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the cooked asparagus before serving for extra flavor.
