Publication: Reader Recipes
I love one pan meals and this one is absolutely delicious. The combination of olives, lemons and rosemary with lamb is incredible! This recipe also includes capers. I love these little green morsels that bring such a distinctive flavour to a dish. I found this recipe in a magazine and adapted it to suit my tastes.
