North African Lamb with Chili, Ginger, Chickpeas and Couscous

Launching in his breakout 1999 debut The Naked Chef, this North African Lamb with Chili, Ginger, Chickpeas and Couscous remains one of Jamie Oliver's most iconic recipes. This dish simplifies traditional North African tagine flavors into an easy, one-pot comfort meal. I made this for a client. I really do not like lamb, so I gave the searing of the meat task to my husband. Next time, I will make it with beef. I did get rave reviews from my in-house tasters! I have no idea how I survived living in England for all those years, having to endure the dreaded Sunday lunch leg of lamb!

Lamb Chili

My father has been going through some major health issues and needs to eat more. We were out at a restaurant and he ordered Lamb Chili, which he absolutely loved. I decided to make him a big pot of it and have included two methods - stovetop and Instant Pot. This was definitely a labor of love given that I really hate lamb!

Lamb Chops with Mint Sauce

I made Lamb Chops with Mint Sauce for my husband's birthday last week. This is the definition of a labor of love. I happen to detest lamb! Having lived in the UK for years, I had to endure many Sunday lunches, flipping the lamb onto my husband's plate when the host left the room! I suppose they wondered why he had all the bones! Anyway, I was told it was a real treat.

Lemon-Garlic Marinated Lamb Chops

Anyone that knows me well, knows that I despise lamb. When we lived in England I had to endure many a Sunday lunch thinking of ways to hoist it over onto my husband's plate without the hostess noticing. I was only sometimes successful... Last week I bought him these lamb chops, gave him the recipe and sat in the living room with a vodka soda while he made them. This just shows how much I love him. So, these Lemon-Garlic Marinated Lamb Chops are Greek-inspired and I was told they were rather good.

Lamb Chops with Crispy Shallots and Pomegranate Sauce

I made my husband Lamb Chops with Crispy Shallots and Pomegranate Sauce. We were celebrating. I have only made him lamb on one other occasion, which was his birthday. He loves lamb and always orders it when we go out for dinner because he knows I REALLY don't like lamb! Needless to say, he loved it. The Pomegranate sauce is absolutely delicious. I made myself a piece of beef.

Pan-seared and Roasted Lamb Chops

If you like lamb, these Pan-seared and Roasted Lamb Chops are incredible. A meat thermometer is key to make sure you cook them to the desired doneness.
