Grilled lamb chops with baked potatoes is a traditional recipe full of flavour and perfect for any special occasion. This dish combines the juiciness of the lamb with the softness and flavour of the slow-cooked potatoes, achieving a combination that will delight everyone.
Ingredients (for 4 people):
- 8 lamb chops
- 4 large potatoes
- 1 large onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 green pepper (optional)
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- Fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Elaboration:
- Prepare the ingredients: Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices. Peel and cut the onion into rings and finely chop the garlic cloves. If you decide to use green pepper, cut it into strips.
- Cook the baked potatoes: In a large frying pan or ovenproof dish, heat a splash of olive oil and sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat. Add the potato slices and green pepper, and season with salt, pepper and paprika. Cook for about 10-15 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Then, place the pan in a preheated oven at 180ºC and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- Cook the lamb chops: While the potatoes are cooking, heat a griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat with a little olive oil. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper and place them on the hot griddle. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and to desired doneness.
- Mount the plate: Serve the lamb chops hot with the baked potatoes. Sprinkle a little chopped fresh parsley on top for garnish.
Suggested presentation:
- This dish can be served with a fresh tomato and onion salad as an additional garnish. You can also serve it with a good red wine to enhance the flavours of the lamb.

Additional advice:

- If you prefer a lighter version, you can bake the potatoes in the oven without frying them first.
