Ingredients:

For the lamb chops:

4 lamb chops

2 tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves (minced)

1 tsp rosemary (fresh or dried)

1 tsp thyme

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 tbsp butter

For the mashed potatoes:

4 large potatoes (peeled and chopped)

2 tbsp butter

½ cup milk

Salt and pepper to taste

For the vegetables:

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup diced pumpkin (or carrots)

1 tbsp olive oil

Salt, pepper, and parsley to taste

Instructions:

1. Marinate the lamb:
In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture over the lamb chops and let them rest for at least 30 minutes.

2. Cook the lamb:
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add butter, then cook the lamb chops for about 3–4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

3. Make the mashed potatoes:
Boil potatoes until tender (about 15 minutes). Drain, then mash with butter, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.

4. Cook the vegetables:
Steam or boil the broccoli for 3–4 minutes.
Roast or sauté the pumpkin cubes in olive oil with salt and pepper until soft and slightly caramelized.

5. Serve:
Place mashed potatoes on the plate, top with grilled lamb chops, and add broccoli and pumpkin on the side. Garnish with chopped parsley.
