HOW TO MAKE ROSEMARY AND GARLIC LAMB CUTLETS WITH LEMONY GARLIC BEANS
Method
- Place the rosemary, lemon zest, garlic, anchovies, oil and lamb cutlets in a bowl with 2 more tbsp olive oil. Combine and marinate for 20 minutes, or up to overnight.
- When ready to cook, heat a grill to medium-high. Line a baking sheet with foil and place the cutlets on top. Season with pepper (the anchovy should rule out the need for salt), and grill or barbecue for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, depending on whether you want your lamb pink or cooked through.
- Meanwhile, blanch the green beans, melt the butter and mix it with the juice from the zested lemons. Toss the cooked beans in the lemon butter, season and serve alongside the lamb cutlets immediately, with extra lemon wedges on the side.
