Lamb medallions seared until golden brown are amazing on their own — tender, 100% grass-fed, and easier to cook than you'd think. However, adding a sweet potato hash and steakhouse chimichurri provides the perfect combination of flavors to do Silver Fern Farms lamb justice. Absolutely delicious! Make it! ~ @melissajorealrecipes

Lamb Medallions with Sweet Potato Hash & Steakhouse Chimichurri Sauce Recipe

Method

To make the steakhouse chimichurri sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the parsley, oregano, bell pepper, onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, steak seasoning, apple cider vinegar, steak sauce, honey, lime juice, and lime zest. Fold in the 2 cups of olive oil until well blended. Refrigerate for one hour before serving.

To make the lamb medallions: In a small bowl, combine the steak seasoning, salt and pepper. Rub the seasonings into the lamb medallions and set aside for 30 minutes. In a 9-inch skillet with high sides set on medium heat, sear the medallions on both sides until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side, or until they reach a minimum of 145° F on an instant-read thermometer. Set aside.

In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the smoked paprika.

Using the same pan, sauté the onions and peppers in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until translucent, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the green peas and sauté with the aromatics over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Set the sautéed veggies aside.

Using the same skillet, coat the bottom with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté sweet potatoes until lightly browned. Cover for 15 to 20 minutes and cook until potatoes are tender but not mushy.

Add the sautéed veggies back to the skillet with the fried potatoes and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until mixed well and heated through.

Slice the lamb medallions in 1-inch-thick slices lengthwise. Arrange on one side of each plate and spoon about 1 tablespoon of the steakhouse chimichurri sauce over the top of the meat. Add two scoops of the sweet potato hash next to the lamb medallions. Serve with about 2 tablespoons of the steakhouse chimichurri sauce — plus more in a ramekin for dipping.

Save the extra chimichurri sauce in a Mason jar in the refrigerator. Will keep for about 1 week.

    If you're looking for a delicious holiday appetizer that's sure to be a crowd-pleaser, then try these Lamb Wellington Bites. The combination of tender lamb medallions wrapped in a crispy, buttery puff pastry makes for a mouthwatering treat. Pair with homemade Dijon and horseradish dipping sauces for a truly irresistible treat. Note: I like to refrigerate the lamb for a few hours before adding to the puff pastries to help slow down the cooking process in the oven. This allows for the puff pastries to brown better on the outside.
