Lemon(s)

1 medium, (wedges, to serve)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C or 180°C fan-forced. Place lamb on a plate. Sprinkle both sides with za’atar seasoning.
  2. Preheat a chargrill or barbecue over medium-high heat. Cook lamb for 3–4 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking.
  3. Meanwhile, place bread on a baking tray. Lightly spray with oil. Bake for 6–8 minutes or until crisp. Break into small pieces.

Notes

Za’atar is a Middle Eastern spice mix. If unavailable, make your own by combining 1 tablespoon each of sumac and toasted sesame seeds with 1 teaspoon of dried oregano and 2 teaspoons of dried thyme.
