Step-by-step

  1. Put the garlic, rosemary, balsamic vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, lemon zest and juice into a shallow dish or baking tray. Season with salt and pepper and add the lamb steaks.
  2. Toss to coat in the marinade, then cover and let marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours or ideally overnight.
  3. When ready to cook, heat a griddle pan over a medium–high heat until hot. Add the lamb and cook for 4 minutes on each side.
  4. Meanwhile, stir the honey into the leftover marinade and spoon a little over each lamb steak as it cooks.
  5. When the lamb is almost cooked, add the artichoke hearts to the pan and drizzle with a little of the marinade. Leave to char for 1 minute, then turn and cook the other side.
  6. Remove the lamb and set aside to rest for 4–5 minutes.
  7. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, then add the cabbage and a squeeze of juice from the reserved lemon half. Season with salt and pepper and allow to wilt until just tender.
  8. To serve, place the cabbage in the centre of each plate, sit a lamb steak on top and spoon the artichokes and any pan juices around the sides. Scatter over a few rosemary leaves to finish.
