Lamb chops with broccoli rice

I love using vegetables instead of the usual carbohydrates like rice, pasta and couscous. Here I’m serving these simple lamb chops with broccoli rice which is super healthy and tastes amazing too, oh, and by the way it’s so easy to make, so that ticks all the boxes really.

Ingredients

This recipe is for two people but you can just double things up for more servings. You will need 2 lamb chops. If they are very small then serve 2 chops per person.

For the broccoli rice

You are going to need a head of broccoli, two cloves of garlic, dried oregano, thyme and rosemary, some parmesan and salt and pepper.

Herb butter

I also make a herb butter for this recipe, just a simple mix of unsalted butter, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, mint and some salt and pepper. You can make a batch of this and store it wrapped in the freezer to use at any time.

Or you could use my homemade pesto butter for this recipe too.

How to make this

Now we are talking fast food here. Your broccoli rice is simply made by whizzing the broccoli in a food processor till it’s crumb-like.

Then you will mix this with garlic and herbs and some olive oil and just saute for a couple of minutes till heated through.

Meanwhile, grill the lamb chops for about 2 minutes each side or however you like them.

If you are making the herb butter just whizz up the ingredients in a mini food processor.

Alternatives

You can use any herbs you like for the herb butter and for adding into the broccoli rice.

If you don’t have broccoli you can make cauliflower rice instead. Just follow the same recipe.

Serving ideas

I like to serve my lamb chops with broccoli rice with some carrot batons and mange tout. A nice springtime supper, hearty, filling, healthy and oh so tasty too.
