Servings 1 person
Equipment
- Grill or Stovetop Grill
- Measuring Cups
- small mixing bowl
- cutting board
- knife
- tongs
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon plain yogurt
- 4 ounce lamb steak
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
- 10 stocks asparagus and other vegetables if desired
- ½ whole lemon
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano or marjoram
Instructions
- Start by marinating your 4 ounce lamb steak in 1 Tablespoon plain yogurt for 15 minutes to two hours before grilling. The acidity of the yogurt quickly tenderizes the meat, and adds another layer of flavor.
- After the lamb has rested, remove excess yogurt before grilling so it doesn't burn. Use a clean paper towel to blot the yogurt off. Then season with 1 teaspoon lemon pepper & place on a hot grill.
- Add 10 stocks fresh asparagus to the grill right away. They'll take about the same amount of time to cook.
- Grill the lamb for 5 minutes on each side for a medium-rare steak. Your steak will come off the grill easily once it's cooked enough.
- Remove once it's done. You can check with a meat thermometer. The meat should be 145+ degrees in the middle. 170 degrees is well done, so I usually like my steaks between 145-160 degrees for a nice medium-rare.
- Make sure to let it stand for 10 minutes before eating. This will seal in the juices, so you'll get a tender and juicy steak instead of a juicy plate.

Notes
- It's hard to get exactly 4 ounces of meat, adjust seasonings depending on how many oz your steak is.
- You can also use lamb chops in this recipe
- Use whatever veggies you have. Carrots, eggplant, zucchini, green beans, and onions are great on the grill.
