Marinated lamb is paired with a zesty and sweet side for a hearty plateful of flavour.
Ingredients
1/2 cup coarse or medium bulgur
1/3 cup lemon juice
3 tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp dried oregano leaves
3/4 tsp salt
6 lamb-loin chops, about 400 g
3/4 cup pomegranate seeds, about 1/2 pomegranate
1/2 cup crumbled feta
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1 tbsp lemon zest
Instructions
Pour bulgur into a medium bowl and cover with 2 cups boiling water. Let stand, covered, until bulgur is tender, 15 to 20 min. Drain well.
Whisk 1/4 cup lemon juice with 2 tbsp oil, garlic, oregano and salt in a shallow dish. Add lamb chops and coat well. Marinate at room temperature for 10 min.
Heat a large frying pan over medium-high. Add lamb and cook until golden, 3 to 4 min per side for medium-rare.
Stir remaining 2 tbsp lemon juice, remaining oil, pomegranate seeds, feta, parsley and lemon zest into bulgur. Serve alongside lamb chops.
