Yuzu and pomegranate lamb chops: A recipe perfect for Easter and other special occasions

5 Comments

Lamb is always a popular meat option once spring arrives and it is also the perfect recipe for a special occasion like Easter lunch or dinner. It doesn’t take particularly long to prepare and the light yuzu (a popular Japanese citrus) dressing really compliments the taste of the lamb meat. I’ve served it with oven-roasted sweet potato, but it could also be served with rice or salad at your preference. So, here’s how to make it at home.

Ingredients

  • 1 sweet potato
  • Salt & pepper (to season)
  • Olive oil
  • 2 lamb chops
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 3 teaspoons yuzu dressing
  • A handful of pomegranate seeds
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
