Grilled Lamb Filet

Ginger Crème Sauce

Sesame Asparagus

Method

Grilled Lamb Filet

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Lamb

    Rub the marinade over the lamb filets and allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Lamb

    Place the marinated lamb filets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Lamb

    Remove the lamb from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Ginger Crème Sauce

  1. 6

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, finely grated fresh ginger, soy sauce, and honey.

  2. 7

    Simmer the Sauce

    Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Allow it to cook for about 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.

  3. 8

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly before serving over the lamb.

Sesame Asparagus

  1. 9

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Wash and trim the tough ends from the asparagus.

  2. 10

    Cook the Asparagus

    In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add asparagus and sprinkle with salt. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender but still crisp.

  3. 11

    Add Sesame Seeds

    Sprinkle sesame seeds over the asparagus and toss to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
