It’s time to impress friends and family with delicious dishes from the barbecue. Thickly sliced and served with a warm caper sauce, this is the perfect way to treat a great cut of lamb.
Serves 4
3 lamb backstraps or tenderloins
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp salted capers
1 large lemon, shredded rind and juice (you will need 1/3 cup)
1/3 cup flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
1 bunch English spinach, leaves removed
