Ingredients

  • Lamb loin chops - 400 grams
  • Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
  • Ginger - 1 tablespoon, grated
  • Coconut aminos - 4 tablespoons
  • Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Honey - 1 tablespoon (optional, for sweetness)
  • Green onions - 2, chopped
  • Red bell pepper - 1, sliced
  • Broccoli florets - 150 grams
  • Salt - to taste
  • Black pepper - to taste
  • Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon, for garnish

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine minced garlic, grated ginger, coconut aminos, sesame oil, and honey to create a marinade.
  2. Add the lamb loin chops to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. While the lamb is marinating, prepare the vegetables by slicing the red bell pepper and separating the broccoli into florets.
  4. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the lamb from the marinade and season with salt and black pepper.
  5. Grill the lamb chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness.
  6. In the last few minutes of grilling, add the broccoli and red bell pepper to the grill, cooking until tender and slightly charred.
  7. Once cooked, remove the lamb and vegetables from the grill and let the lamb rest for a few minutes.
  8. Slice the lamb chops and serve them over the grilled vegetables. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
