Ingredients

2 x 115g Lean lamb leg steaks, all visible fat removed
2 Garlic cloves, crushed
1 Tbsp chopped rosemary
A few sprigs of mint, chopped
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and black pepper

Greek salad:
¼ Cucumber, diced
2 Ripe tomatoes, quartered
½ Red onion, thinly sliced
1 Green pepper, deseeded and cut into chunks
A handful of mint, chopped
A handful of parsley, chopped
2 Tbsp fat-free vinaigrette dressing
Balsamic vinegar for drizzling

Make sure you use really lean lamb leg steaks or fillet and remove any visible fat before cooking them. It’s well worth the time spent marinating the meat as it not only adds flavour, but it tenderises it too.

How to make Marinated Lamb Leg Steaks:

  1. Put the lamb steaks in a shallow dish with the garlic, herbs and lemon juice.  Season with salt and pepper and turn them over in the marinade. Cover and leave in a cool place for 30 minutes.
  2. Cook the lamb steaks under a hot grill for 4–5 minutes each side until browned on the outside and cooked to your liking inside. Alternatively, cook in a ridged griddle pan or over hot coals on a barbecue.
  3. Meanwhile, make the Greek salad: mix together the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion and green pepper in a bowl. Scatter with the chopped herbs and toss lightly in the dressing. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

4. Serve the hot lamb steaks immediately with the Greek salad.
