Orange, Olive and Herb Salsa

  • 1 orange
  • 3.5oz green olives, pitted and sliced

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 red chili, finely chopped
  • 3 Tbsp chopped parsley

  • 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar

Method

Step 1

Remove the Silver Fern Farms Lamb Medallions from the pack, cover with paper towels and stand for 10 minutes.

Step 2

To prepare the salsa, peel and segment the orange, holding it over a bowl to catch the juice. Add the olives, celery, garlic, chili and parsley. Stir in the olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste and set aside.

Step 3

Rub the olive oil all over the medallions and season with salt and cracked pepper.

Step 4

Heat a frying pan or barbecue over medium-high heat. Cook the medallions for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Remove from the heat. Cover loosely with foil and set aside for 5-10 minutes to rest.

Step 5

Slice lamb across the grain and serve with the salsa and baby spinach leaves.
