Step 1
Rub the 8 lamb chops with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 minced garlic clove, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Step 2
While the lamb rests, make the sauce: heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a small pan over medium. Add 1 minced garlic clove and 1 chopped red bell pepper, cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in the 2 tbsp tomato paste and 1/4 cup water. Simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until smooth if you prefer.
Step 4
Heat a grill or grill pan over high. Cook the lamb chops for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until nicely charred and cooked to your liking.
Step 5
Toss the 4 cups mixed greens with 1 sliced red onion and the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 6
Serve the lamb chops with the red sauce, flatbread, and salad on the side.
Step 7
Rest the lamb for 5 minutes before serving to keep it juicy.
