Instrukcje
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. On a baking tray, toss the diced carrots and parsnips with 1 tbsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
- 2.While the vegetables roast, place the rinsed lentils in a saucepan with 500ml of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until tender. Drain well.
- 3.Pat the lamb chops dry and season them generously with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and the chopped fresh rosemary.
- 4.Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the lamb chops in the hot pan and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for a medium-rare finish. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
- 5.In a large serving bowl, combine the warm cooked lentils, the roasted root vegetables, and the finely chopped red onion.
- 6.Whisk the lemon juice with any resting juices from the lamb pan. Pour this dressing over the lentil mixture, add the arugula, and toss gently until the greens just begin to wilt.
- 7.To serve, divide the warm lentil salad between two plates and top with two rested lamb chops each.
