Although the recipe calls for lamb tenderloins, you could certainly substitute leftover grilled lamb with excellent results.
Ingredients:
-
3 lbs. lamb fillets
-
1/4 cup vegetable oil
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 cup fresh mint, chopped
-
2 lbs. baby new potatoes, scrubbed
-
2 red peppers, roasted and chopped
-
1 lb. asparagus, blanched and chopped
-
2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
-
1/3 cup lime juice
-
1/2 cup olive oil
-
4 egg yolks
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
Steps:
-
Steam the new potatoes on the side burner until tender, then drain. If the potatoes are larger than bite sized, cut them into halves or quarters as appropriate. Set aside.
-
Blanch the asparagus on the side burner, plunge into ice water, then drain on paper towel lined wire racks. Set aside.
-
Preheat the barbecue on HIGH, and place red peppers on grids. Char on all sides, then remove from the heat. Place the peppers in a paper bag to cool, then slip off the charred skins; seed and chop.
-
Grill the lamb on HIGH for 2-3 minutes per side. Cool, then slice.
-
To make the dressing, place the yolks, garlic, and lime juice in a blender, or in the bowl of a food processor. With the motor running, add the oils in a thin stream. Add the chopped mint leaves. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
-
Toss the lamb, potatoes, peppers and blanched asparagus with the dressing, and garnish with fresh chives.
