I love lamb! It is absolutely delicious and you'd better be in a primal mood to eat lamb chops; you really have to gnaw on the bone if you want to get every morself of delicious baby lamb meat, grrr.
I've been cooking for myself lately, as my husband is on some odd weight lifting diet that requires him to eat nothing but oatmeal, cottage cheese, black beans and steak, blech. Anyway, this recipe, and most others I post, will feed one.
You will need:2 lamb chops (or 3, how hungry are you?)
1 fresh beet
handfull of haricot vert (or fresh green beans)
Lemon juice
olive oil
White balsamic vinegar
feta (I use fat free, it's pretty delicious)
cumin
hungarian paprika
garlic powder
salt pepper
Start out with a tablespoon of cumin, salt and paprika, about a half tablespoon of garlic powder and pepper. Rub about half of the mixture all over your lamb chops and set aside. Take the other half and mix with a squeeze of lemon, a splash of vinegar and some olive oil and set aside.
Peel your beet and cube into 1/2 inch pieces. Drop in salted boiling water and boil until fork tender (8 min or so). When the beets are almost done, drop in your beans for a minute or two. Strain the beets and beans and toss in a bowl with reserved dressing, and put it in the fridge.
Grill your lamb chops. When lamb is done, pull your salad out of the fridge and plate with your chops. Sprinkle with crumbled feta and enjoy!
