The prep for this meal starts the night before serving, but it’s still only a 20-minute process.

The only thing that needs to be done the night before is to place the lamb, yogurt, garlic, pepper and chili flakes in a large freezer bag. The bag can then be placed in the refrigerator until the next day.
When the time comes to grill, the chef should wait until the grill is heated to 350 ° Fahrenheit. How long the Superior Farms meat needs to be on the grill really depends on how the meat was cut. It usually is safe to say between seven and nine minutes on each side for those who enjoy their meat served medium. When the meat is flipped, the asparagus can join it on the grill. The asparagus can come off at the same time as the Superior Farms Lamb and just needs to be finished with some salt and pesto. It’s simple and delicious.
While the chef is waiting for the Superior Farms lamb on the grill, they can work on the sauces as well. The easiest way to make both the herbed yogurt and the red pepper pesto is to utilize a food processor. All the ingredients can be added in a food processor and are finished when everything has smoothed out. For those who want to get even more flavor out of their sauces, they can be made 3-4 days ahead of time and placed in the refrigerator.
