Instruções
- 1.Preheat oven to 200°C. Chop carrots and parsnip into bite-sized pieces. Toss with half the olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender.
- 2.While the vegetables roast, rinse the lentils. Place them in a small saucepan with 400ml of water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain thoroughly.
- 3.Finely chop one clove of garlic and the rosemary leaves. Pat the lamb chops dry and season them with the chopped garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
- 4.Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a teaspoon of olive oil. Sear the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Remove from the pan and let rest for 5 minutes.
- 5.While the lamb rests, prepare the dressing. In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, remaining olive oil, the finely sliced red onion, and the second minced garlic clove.
- 6.Add the warm drained lentils, roasted vegetables, and torn kale leaves to the bowl with the dressing. Toss everything together; the residual heat will gently wilt the kale.
- 7.To serve, divide the warm lentil and vegetable salad between two plates and top each with a rested lamb chop.
