Ingredients

  • 130g Lamb Leg
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g sweetcorn
  • 80g red pepper
  • 30g bbq sauce
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3g garlic
  • 10g spring onions

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the sweetcorn and peppers, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Cut the lamb into strips, season well and stir-fry or griddle over high heat for 4-5 minutes until browned but still juicy.

  4. 4

    Mix the BBQ sauce with smoked paprika and garlic. Brush over the protein for the last few minutes of cooking so it chars without burning.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the sweetcorn and peppers for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and lamb, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the spring onions.
