Grill the Lamb
Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook lamb fillets for about 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. -
Prepare the Salad
In a large bowl, combine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, yellow paprika, cucumber, and capers. Shave Tête de Moine cheese over the top. -
Make the Dressing
Whisk together teriyaki sauce, sweet chili sauce, and lemon juice. Drizzle over salad just before serving. -
