Pollo, Tacchino, Agnello, e Manzo Arrosto con Insalata di Rinforzo

Mixed grill of chicken, turkey, lamb, and beef with make-you-strong salad

4 lamb chops (loin or rib), trimmed of fat

8 cloves garlic, chopped

1 pound boneless shell steak, cut into 4 pieces

4 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped

Salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste

4 sprigs fresh thyme, chopped

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 can of beer

4 chicken thighs

4 turkey wings

Make-you-strong salad (recipe follows)

Rub the lamb chops and steaks with salt and pepper and drizzle them with olive oil. Mix together the garlic and the herbs and rub half the mixture into the lamb chops and steaks.

Pour the beer into a large bowl and add the chicken and turkey, the remaining garlic-herb mixture, and salt and pepper. Let all the meat marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Heat the grill or broiler and cook the meat to desired doneness- approximately 4 minutes per side for the lamb chops (for medium-rare), 4 to 5 minutes per side for the strip steak(for medium-rare), and 15 minutes per side for the chicken. (If you broil the meat, it will take slightly less time than on the grill.) Serve with the salad.
