Season the lamb chops and rub with olive oil and garlic. Leave to marinate in the fridge for as long as possible.
Place a griddle pan over a high heat and pan-fry the chops until tender-cooked and succulent.
Serve the chops with a good spoonful of the garlicky anchovy and-tomato sauce, scatter over the flat-leaf parsley and season to taste.

TASTE’s take:
Salty anchovies and sweet are a delicious combination, even more so when paired with lamb. In summer, this sauce served with a roast leg of lamb makes a good alternative to wintry gravy. Enjoy with hot buttered baby potatoes.
