  • ---------------------------
  • LEMON VINAIGRETTE
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • ---------------------------
  • LAMB CHOPS
  • 8 lamb chops
  • 1-2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method

Step 1

Begin by removing the lamb chops from the fridge to allow them to come to room temperature (about 20-30 minutes before cooking).

Step 2

Make the watermelon salad by adding all of the ingredients to a large bowl.

Step 3

Mix the vinaigrette ingredients together in a jar or bowl.

Step 4

Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.

Step 5

Season the lamb chops very well with salt and black pepper.

Step 6

Heat olive oil in a grill pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Turn the heat down to medium.

Step 7

Place the lamb chops in the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes on on side, flip and cook for another 5-6 minutes on the other side. For medium rare, the lamb chops should be 52°C (125°F).

Step 8

Remove the lamb chops from the pan and allow to rest on a plate covered with foil for about 10 minutes.

Step 9

Serve the lamb chops with the watermelon salad and enjoy.
