It is served over rice but I tend to just eat it by itself and then put rice onthe plater after I'm finished to sop up the yummy sauce. It's simply delicious and that's the best explaination. Oh, and please note, that I usually make a double or triple batch of this becuase I eat a lot and I love leftovers. :)

Hi! I came across your blog and this recipe sounded so good to me that I had to make it. My husband and I both really loved it. I hope you don't mind, but I used your recipe on my own food blog that I just started (I credited you for it, of course)! Here is my entry:

Your blog is great, and thanks for the delicious recipe.
I have GOT to make this! But I have one question: what cut of lamb do you get for this? Would boneless chops work?
Wow. Made this dish last night and it was just outstandingly delicious! The lamb came out melt in your mouth tender & I love the simplicity of the recipe. I served ours over orzo but found it to be just as satisfying by itself.
My boyfriend & I both went back for seconds, which we almost never do. Thanks for turning me on to a meal I have a feeling will be in frequent rotation in our house!
I make a recipe very similar to this but with okra. However, I have an abundance of fresh picked green beans so I can't wait to try it with them. :-)
