Spiced Barnsley Chops w/ Marinda Tomato Salad

Spiced Barnsley Chops w/ Marinda Tomato Salad

Written by: Amanda McCabe

Main Course
We’ve combined the rich flavour of griddled Shottenden lamb, marinated slowly in local yoghurt and spices and paired it with juicy segments of orange and soft, sweet onion steaks. Alongside this, we’ve prepared a simple salad from Sicilian Marinda tomatoes.  

Instructions

Mix all marinade ingredients together and pour over lamb chops

Cover and leave to marinade for four hours, or overnight, in the fridge

When ready, heat BBQ or cast iron griddle pan to a high heat

Sear the chops along the length of their fat for a couple of minutes

Turn the chops flat, lower the heat slightly, and cook on each side for approx. 6 minutes - longer to cook through if you don’t like them a little pink inside

At the same time as you turn the chops flat, add the orange segments & onions and turn occasionally until they are soft, sweet and charred - if ready before the meat, simply set aside and cover with foil to keep warm

When the meat is cooked, leave it aside to rest while you prepare the tomato salad

Pile tomatoes onto a plate, add as many anchovy fillets as you like, and drizzle with good olive oil and a sprinkle of salt (you could also add a little lemon zest here too if you wish)

Enjoy alfresco if the weather is behaving itself!
