Marinated Chilli Lamb Over Stir-Fried Vegetables

Goodness I have just realized I have been posting so many Asian recipes lately, I guess I must be in that kind of mood. Either that or after all that food over Christmas and the new year, I'm trying cook lighter meals, I always find Asian if made in a low carb way is so light and you don't feel so heavy. Helps to shift some of those extra pounds you put on. ( Ha, ha!!!) Well I have made a few other recipes that are not Asian so I guess I need to post some of those too. Although I say if it tastes great who cares how many nights in a row you eat Asian, curries, Beef, Chicken whatever your in the mood for enjoy it.

Here is a very easy recipe to make, little effort and not much preparation or cooking time to fuss with. Oh before I post if your looking at the photo and don't see the sesame seeds on top, stupid me took the photo ate the meal and then saw the seeds still in the pan, I had forgotten to sprinkle over the top. Duh
