Background
For summer barbecues and midweek suppers these Moroccan-style spiced lamb steaks tick many boxes - they are tender, super easy to cook and most importantly very tasty! Best served with a crispy salad and couscous or flatbread. If you want them spicy, substitute quarter/half of the paprika Β with cayenne or chilli powder.
Ingredients
- 8 small lamb leg steaks
- Salt and pepper
- Mint leaves to serve
- For the marinade:
- Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- Β½ tsp ground pepper
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 pinch of cinnamon
- 1 tsp grated garlic or Β½ tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Mix the marinade in a bowl then brush the steaks generously with the marinade. Put them in a shallow dish and pour over any remaining marinade. Cover and chill for at least an hour in the fridge (preferably overnight).
- Take the lamb steaks out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
- Heat your BBQ, grill or griddle pan. Season the steaks with salt and pepper then fry them for 3-5 minutes on each side, turning them every minute.
- When the steaks are cooked to your liking, transfer them to a plate and rest for 5 minutes before serving with your chosen side dishes.
