Pan-Seared Catalan Lamb Kofta

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, lemon, garlic so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the fennel bulb in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the lamb kofta and let it pan-seared, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the kosher salt along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Off the heat, brighten it up with chili crisp and a final crack of pepper.
6. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
