Grown-up leads

Kids cook with a grown-up. Hot ovens, boiling water and frying are grown-up jobs, and sharp knives need a grown-up’s hands too.

Ingredients

  • Rack of lamb (ask the butcher to cut them into chops)

  • Salt

  • EVOO

  • Lemons

  • Rosemary or your favorite herb

  • Hot peppers (if you wish)

Method

  1. Pat your chops dry.

  2. Toss them in a healthy amount of EVOO, salt, lemon and rosemary.

  3. Get your pan nice and hot.

  4. Add the chops to the pan.

  5. Get a nice sear on each side.

  6. Don't overcook them.

  7. Plate them.

  8. Add more EVOO and whatever fresh herbs you have on hand.

  9. And that's it. Enjoy!
