Ingredients

  • Garlic Clove: 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • Lemon: zest and juice 2 lemons
  • Greek Yogurt: 200ml Greek yogurt
  • Thyme: few sprigs thyme, leaves stripped, plus extra to serve if you like
  • Lamb Cutlet: 18 lamb cutlets or chops
  • Houmous: houmous, pitta bread and a bag of salad leaves, to serve

Directions

  1. Sit lamb in a large shallow dish, then mix the lemon zest and juice, thyme leaves and garlic together. Pour over, turn to coat, and marinate at room temp for 15 mins.
  2. Mix the yogurt with some seasoning, lift the lamb out of the marinade and rub with the yogurt. Barbecue or grill for 5-15 mins, turning once, until the lamb is cooked to your liking.
