Ingredients (4 servings):
- 220g lamb or beef strips
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- Greek-Style Salad
- 6 handfuls spinach or rocket leaves
- 2 spring onions, finely chopped
- 300g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 cucumbers, sliced
- 400g green beans, lightly cooked, drained and refreshed
- 2 tbsp capers
- Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 60g feta or goat cheese, crumbled
- 4 tbsp pesto thinned with 2 tbsp olive oil, to dress
Method:
- Rub meat with oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a heavy frypan over medium-high heat and sear lamb for 4 minutes each side.
- For medium-rare it should feel quite soft when you press the centre.
- Remove from pan, cover with tin foil and a clean tea towel and allow to rest.
- While meat rests, make Greek-Style Salad by placing spinach or rocket, spring onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, beans and capers in a salad bowl.
- Slice meat thinly across the grain and add to salad along with meat juices from the board and lemon zest and juice.
- Toss to combine then sprinkle with feta cheese and drizzle with thinned pesto to serve.
