4 garlic cloves
minced3 sprigs fresh thyme
½ cup reduced-salt beef stock
¼ cup cream
¼ cup wholegrain mustard
300g broccolini
175g kale, fresh, raw
1 garlic clove
minced1 lemon

2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp walnuts

Method
Get your potatoes on to boil and once soft, drain and mash. Set aside for later.
Bring a non-stick fry pan to medium high heat. Add the broccolini in and sear on high heat for a few minutes until tender but still crisp.
In a large bowl, tear the kale into bite sized pieces. Mix through two teaspoons of olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt.
Gently massage the kale until well coated and beginning to soften. Add the broccolini and walnuts, tossing everything together until well combined.
Blitz the salad dressing ingredients together and toss through.
Toss together lamb chops in a large bowl with half the garlic, the leaves from one thyme sprig, a generous drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper.
Cook the lamb in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Remove from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, add the stock and cream bringing them to the boil.
Once bubbling, add wholegrain mustard, the remaining garlic and remaining thyme sprigs.
Return the lamb chops back into the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes or until heated through and cooked to your liking.
Serve with a little mash, a pile of kale and broccolini with the lamb chops over the top.
Easy swaps:
- We've used lamb loin chops, but these are delicious with lamb shoulder chops too. Just make sure they're lean and trimmed of excess fat.
- Wholegrain mustard is family friendly, but if your family prefers, Dijon mustard is equally as lovely.
- Thyme is a favourite, but we've used rosemary and sage as well - they're great so do give them a go!
