Lamb Chops with Feta and Zucchini Salad

Good Pair Days (Roos Michels) -
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp chopped thyme
  • 4 quality lamb chops
  • 2 zucchini, sliced into 1cm rounds
  • 200g snow peas
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp mustard
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • Small handful of chopped basil and mint
  • 25g feta, crumbled
  • Heat up a griddle and brush the chops with 1 tbsp of oil with the thyme leaves and some seasoning. Cook for 3 mins on each side, then stand them up and griddle on the fatty rind for 2 mins to render. Remove to a plate, and leave to rest.
  • Brush the zucchinis with the remaining oil, and season well. Griddle for a couple of mins on each side to create char-lines, and meanwhile cook the snow peas in boiling water for 3 mins. Drain, tip the snow peas into a salad bowl with the griddled zucchinis, and dress with a mixture of the vinegar, mustard, chilli, mint and basil. Crumble in the feta, lightly mix, and serve on the side of your lamb.
