How to make Lemon Cranberry Lamb


  1. Season the chops with salt, pepper and five-spice.
  2. Mix the juice, zest and mustard in a bowl and sit the chops in it for 10 minutes. Shake off the excess and set the bowl aside.
  3. Seal the lamb in a hot pan with the oil for a minute or two on each side.
  4. Transfer the lamb to a baking tray and roast at 190 degrees C for 10-20 minutes, depending on how well done you like it.
  5. Meanwhile, put the couscous into a bowl, pour over the stock and cover for 5 minutes.  Add the butterbeans, peas, and lemon juice.
  6. Gently heat the juice mixture, adding in the cranberries towards the end.  Pour over the chops and serve with the butterbean couscous.

    Oh my goodness, this does look delicious. I'm a total sucker for lamb though--I wish I could find it at my grocery store more often.

    Yes, it really is yummy! I love lamb. You could always try this with pork chops instead too, I reckon that would work just as well :-)
