Method

  1. Mix the lamb steaks with the oregano, garlic, lemon zest and oil and season with black pepper. Set aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat and brown the steaks for 2 minutes on each side, then add the white wine. Simmer for a few minutes until reduced by half.
  3. Add the tomatoes to the pan, breaking them up slightly with the back of a spoon. Add the olives and tomato ketchup and cook for 10-15 minutes until the lamb is cooked. Remove the lamb, set aside on a serving plate and keep warm. Bubble to reduce the sauce until thickened slightly.
