Ingredients

  • 12 lamb cutlets
  • 3 thyme sprigs, leaves picked
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 235g roasted red peppers from a jar, drained
  • 175g feta, crumbled
  • 2 spring onions, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves very finely chopped
  • 2 thyme sprigs, leaves picked
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • squeeze of lemon juice (optional)

Method

  1. Put the lamb cutlets in a bowl with the thyme, chilli flakes and oil. Toss together to coat, then leave to marinate in the fridge for 30 mins-1 hr.

  2. For the htipiti, cut the peppers into small pieces. Put in a bowl and add all the other ingredients. Leave for about 15 mins for the flavour to infuse.

  3. Heat a griddle pan or frying pan. When it’s really hot, lift the chops out of the marinade. Cook them, a few at a time, for 3 mins either side, seasoning as you go. Serve the chops with the sauce, and some baby potatoes, if you like.
