Ingredients

  • 400g new potatoes
  • 25ml olive oil
  • 8 lamb chops
  • 200g broccolini

For the chimichurri sauce

  • 15g flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
  • 15g coriander, roughly chopped
  • 15g mint, leaves picked and roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1 green chilli, chopped
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 25ml red wine vinegar
  • 50ml olive oil

Method

Light your barbecue. When the coals are silvery, it’s ready.

While you’re waiting for the coals to heat, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the new potatoes for 10 minutes, until just tender.

When the barbecue is ready, rub a little oil over the lamb chops and season well. Put the potatoes and broccolini into a bowl and add the remaining oil. Season and toss together.

Put the chops onto the barbecue and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Add the potatoes and broccolini when you turn the chops over and turn these over after 1-2 minutes.

To make the chimichurri sauce, mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl and season well.

To serve, pile the lamb, new potatoes and broccolini onto a platter and spoon over the sauce.
