Exotic Sweet Potato Lamb Chop Recipe

May 7, 2025 Written by Emily

Today, I am excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe that is perfect for cozy autumn evenings or holiday gatherings. This dish combines unexpected ingredients to create a harmonious blend of textures and flavors that will surprise and delight your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium purple sweet potato, peeled and diced
  • 2 starfruit, thinly sliced
  • 4 lamb chops
  • 1 dragonfruit, diced
  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
  • 1/4 cup pistachios, chopped

Preparation:

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the diced purple sweet potato and sliced starfruit on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the sweet potato is golden and tender.

While the sweet potato and starfruit are roasting, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper, then grill for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness.

In a small bowl, combine the diced dragonfruit and minced chipotle peppers to create a spicy-sweet salsa. Stir in the chopped pistachios for added crunch and flavor.

Serving:

To serve, place a mound of the roasted purple sweet potato and starfruit mixture on each plate. Top with a grilled lamb chop and a generous spoonful of the dragonfruit salsa. Garnish with extra pistachios for a pop of color and texture.

Tips:

For an extra burst of flavor, try marinating the lamb chops in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs before grilling. This will infuse the meat with even more deliciousness.
