These taste so good and so easy and simple to make. Highly recommend. Im usually not good at cooking but this was a breeze!
That's wonderful to hear!
This was so easy to prepare and taste is deliscious! Highly recommend. Love this recipe and Im sure you will too!
Great, simple recipe. I added (smoked) paprika right before serving for a little smokiness.
This LAMB challenge is my kind of action. I have enjoyed chops, roasts, kabobs, stews & lollipops. Lots of the recipes I cooked at home. I am not a fan of eating lamb "out" because it can be a bit under-cooked for me. I love pink au jus, but not red.
