Ingredients

  • 1.25 lb lamb chops (rib or loin)
  • ½ lb chorizo sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 1 lb frozen french fries
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 whole lime
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss fries with 1 tbsp oil, salt, and pepper on a sheet pan. Spread in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Pat lamb chops dry. Season generously with salt, pepper, and oregano on both sides.

  3. 3

    Roast fries for 12 minutes. Push them to the sides of the pan to make room for the meat.

  4. 4

    Drizzle lamb and chorizo with remaining 2 tbsp oil. Add to the pan with the minced garlic; season again.

  5. 5

    Roast for 10–12 minutes, stirring fries halfway through. Lamb should be pink inside, chorizo edges crisped.

  6. 6

    Squeeze lime over everything. Serve hot directly from the pan.

Tools you’ll need

  • 18 x 13-inch sheet pan
  • instant-read thermometer (optional, for lamb doneness)
