Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces lamb steaks
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 800 grams potatoes
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 150 grams crumbled feta cheese
- 100 milliliters milk
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Season the lamb steaks with dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Rub the seasonings into the meat and set aside to marinate while preparing other ingredients.
Peel and chop the potatoes into even chunks. Place them in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes cook, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the lamb steaks to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on your desired level of doneness. Remove the steaks from the pan, cover with foil, and let them rest.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the lemon zest and lemon juice to create a lemon olive oil drizzle.
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, crumbled feta cheese, and minced garlic. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the lamb steaks alongside the feta cheese mash. Drizzle the steaks with the lemon olive oil and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
