Ingredients

  • 4 pieces lamb chops
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 whole green bell pepper
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 pieces flatbread

Instructions

  1. 1

    Season the 4 lamb chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Brush with 1 tbsp olive oil.

    While the lamb cooks, slice the 1 green bell pepper into strips. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a separate skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the peppers and 1 cup cherry tomatoes for 5-6 minutes, until softened and slightly blistered.

  4. 4

    Warm the 2 flatbreads in the same skillet or microwave for 30 seconds.
