Equipment

  • Baking tray

Ingredients

  • 4 Lamb steaks
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon Thyme
  • ½ teaspoon Parsley
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Black pepper or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce optional
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Mix the seasoning: Start by mixing the seasoning. In a bowl, combine garlic, onion, paprika, black pepper, mixed herbs, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt. Stir well until you get a thick paste that will serve as your marinade.
  • Apply the marinade to the lamb steaks: Next, apply the marinade evenly to the lamb steaks. Coat every side completely, massaging the mixture into the meat so it absorbs all the flavour. For a stronger flavor, cover and marinate for thirty minutes.
  • Arrange in an oven tray: Arrange the steaks on an oven tray or use a tray with a rack if you prefer a crispier bottom. Make sure they’re in a single layer and spaced apart to allow hot air to circulate for even cooking.
  • Bake: Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F). Bake for 15 to 20 minutes for rare to medium, or 20 to 25 minutes for well done. The lamb is safely cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 63 °C (145 °F).
  • Rest the Lamb: Let the lamb rest for five minutes after cooking before serving.

Notes

  • When buying the steaks, check that they are all of a uniform thickness.
  • You can cook the lamb steaks immediately or marinate them for 30 minutes for a more intense flavour.
  • After baking, let the steaks rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check doneness and avoid overcooking.
  • For a simple side, add vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, or bell peppers directly to the baking tray. They will cook alongside the lamb and absorb some of the flavour.
  • Any leftover pan juices can be used as a concentrated sauce or as a base for a quick gravy.
