Jamie Oliver Lamb Heart

Jamie Oliver Lamb Heart

Jamie Oliver Lamb Heart is a simple preparation of cleaned and trimmed lamb heart, typically sliced and pan-seared or gently braised with herbs and garlic. When cooked properly, it becomes tender and flavorful with a firm but pleasant texture.

Ingredients

Scale

    • 2 lamb hearts, cleaned and trimmed

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary or thyme

    • Salt and black pepper to taste

    • Juice of ½ lemon

    • Optional: 1 small onion, sliced

Instructions

Step 1: Clean and Trim

Rinse the lamb hearts under cold water. Trim away any tough connective tissue, valves, or excess fat. Slice into thin strips or small chunks for quicker cooking.

Step 2: Heat the Pan

Place a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and let it heat properly before adding the meat.

Step 3: Cook the Lamb Heart

Add sliced lamb heart in a single layer. Cook for 3–4 minutes on each side until browned. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 4: Add Garlic and Herbs

Lower the heat slightly. Add minced garlic and rosemary or thyme. Cook for another 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5: Finish with Lemon

Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the meat. Season with salt and black pepper.

Serve immediately while hot and tender.
