Recipe: Greek-Style Lamb Stacks with Mint Relish

A refreshing summer dish packed full of flavour.

Serves: 2

Prep time: 15 mins

Cook time: 12-16 mins

Ingredients;

• 8 lamb chops
• Grated zest of 1 lemon
• 1 tablespoon rapeseed or olive oil
• 1 x 280g jar roasted peppers (available at large supermarkets), drained and chopped
• 50g feta cheese, crumbled

For the mint relish;

• 1 x 25–30g pack fresh chopped mint
• 1 small red onion, peeled and finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons rapeseed or olive oil

1. To prepare the mint relish: in a small bowl, mix all the ingredients together, cover and set aside.

2. Place the chops on a chopping board. Season and sprinkle the lemon zest all over. Brush with the oil.

3. Cook on a prepared BBQ or under a preheated moderate grill for 6–8 minutes on each side.

4. Sprinkle half the peppers onto a large plate, add the chops, sprinkle over the feta, the remaining peppers and some of the mint relish.

5. Serve immediately with a crisp green salad and any remaining relish.

Tips: The recipe works well with boneless leg steaks too. As an alternative, substitute the feta with goat’s cheese.
