Instruções
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Rinse the millet thoroughly under cold water. In a saucepan, combine the millet with 350ml of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the water is absorbed.
- 2.While the millet cooks, trim the woody ends off the asparagus. Toss the spears with 15ml of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender-crisp.
- 3.In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, mint, minced garlic, the zest of the lemon, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pat the lamb cutlets dry and press the herb mixture firmly onto both sides of each cutlet.
- 4.Heat the remaining 15ml of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb cutlets for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness. Let the lamb rest for a few minutes before serving.
- 5.Fluff the cooked millet with a fork. Stir in the finely chopped red onion and the juice from the lemon. Season with salt and pepper.
- 6.To serve, divide the lemony millet between two plates. Top with the roasted asparagus and the herbed lamb cutlets.
