Method

  1. Rub the lamb with the lemon zest, cinnamon and 1 tsp of oil. Season well.
  2. Heat another tsp of oil in a non-stick saucepan and add the onion, 1 garlic clove and seasoning. Cook for 5 minutes, then add the kale, rice and stock. Put a lid on and cook on low heat for 8-10 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
  3. Heat a griddle pan until very hot. Cook the lamb for 3-4 minutes on each side until chargrilled. Heat 1 tbsp of oil and fry the chilli and remaining garlic until golden. Add the lemon juice and reduce until syrupy. Serve the lamb with the rice and lemon chilli sauce poured over.

    Absolutely delicious despite being really quick and easy to make. Was a bit worried about the amount of cinnamon at first but it wasn't at all overpowering and, along with the lemon zest, it gave the lamb a lovely spicy twang. The rice was just gorgeous too. My husband said it was the best rice I'd ever made and I'll be serving it up as a regular side from now on. Fantastic!

    Delicious! Made with brown rice so it wasn't that quick, but we all loved it.

    This was nice, especially the rice, but I couldn't taste any of the lemon or cinnamon flavours on the lamb, which was disappointing as I was looking forward to the 'twang' mentioned in the review above! We didn't have any kale so had roasted squash with it instead, which went quite well.

    Abs delicious and easy to make! Tossed the lamb in the sauce instead- gave it a nice even flavouring!

    This is a delicious recipe. The lamb tastes lovely and the rice cooks perfectly. Recently made the rice and had it with salmon fillet instead of lamb, minus the cinnamon!

    A good easy evening meal. The lamb was a bit too chewy for us, however the flavours were brilliant together. We had it with mashed pots & broccoli, and I drizzled the lemon chilli sauce over the meat. Yum!
