Method
- Preheat the grill to high. Place the lamb leg steaks in a bowl with the yogurt, garlic and half the mint. Mix together, season and set aside for 10 minutes to marinate.
- Meanwhile, place the couscous in a bowl. Pour over the hot stock, oil and sprinkle with the lemon zest. Cover with cling film and stand for 10 minutes. Fluff up with a fork, then add the lemon juice, remaining herbs and nuts. Season and set aside.
- Place the lamb on a grill pan and grill for 4-5 minutes each side until cooked but still a little pink in the middle. Serve with the couscous.
