  4. Clean and chop the red peppers, then roast them on a griddle or in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
  5. To serve, remove the lamb from the oil and plate it alongside the sautéed spinach and roasted red pepper pieces.

Recommendation

To give this dish the perfect finishing touch, once the lamb is cooked, drain it from the oil and place it on a tray in the oven with the broiler on, until it turns golden brown.
