- Wash and dry greens. Tear them into bite-size pieces and set them aside in a bowl with the red peppers. Heat the olive oil in a 9" skillet until very hot but not smoking. Add the lamb in a single layer and let it cook 1 minute. Stir and turn it for 15 seconds. Turn off the heat and at once add the raisins, pine nuts, and dressing. Stir 15 seconds to let the dressing heat through. Immediately pour the contents of the skillet over the greens, toss well, and serve at once.
