Number Of Ingredients 16

Private Reserve Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 large yellow onion, chopped
3 carrots, cubed
6 Yukon gold potatoes (or any small potatoes), peeled, cubed
Kosher salt and pepper
2.5 lb boneless leg of American lamb, fat trimmed, cut into cubes (Or American lamb shoulder, bones removed, fat-trimmed)
3 large garlic cloves, roughly chopped
½ cup dried apricots
1 cinnamon stick
1 bay leaf
1 ½ tsp ground allspice
1 1/2 tsp ras el hanout Moroccan spice blend (find it here)
½ tsp ground ginger
6 plum tomatoes from a can, cut in halves
2 ½ cups low-sodium beef broth
1 15-oz can chickpeas

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven (affiliate) or heavy oven-safe pot, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking.
  • In the heated oil, saute the onions, carrots, and potatoes for 4 minutes or so. Add the garlic and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pot and set aside briefly.
  • In the same pot, add more oil if needed, and deeply brown the lamb on all sides. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Turn heat to medium-high and return the sauteed vegetables to the pot. Add the dried apricots, cinnamon stick, bay leaf and spices and stir to coat.
  • Add the plum tomatoes and broth and bring everything to a boil for 5 minutes or so.
  • Cover the pot and place in the 350 degrees F heated-oven for 1 ½ hours (check partway through to add water or broth if needed). Now stir in the chickpeas, cover and return to the oven for another 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and serve hot with your choice of Lebanese rice, couscous, pita bread or your favorite rustic bread.
  • A simple Mediterranean salad like Fattoush makes a great starter for this hearty meal. Enjoy!

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/3 pounds boneless lamb cutlets (leg or loin cut), sliced into 1/2-inch strips
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 large yellow onion, sliced
1 whole roasted red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
One 10-ounce package sliced white button mushrooms
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup pitted large green olives, roughly chopped
2 teaspoons capers, rinsed
1/4 teaspoon lemon zest
Rice pilaf, for serving
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Set a large saute pan over high heat and add the oil. Sprinkle the lamb with salt and pepper. Add the lamb to the pan along with the garlic and saute until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the oregano and pepper flakes and stir. The lamb is done when browned all over but still tender. Transfer to a dish and set aside.
  • Set the pan back over the heat and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onions, roasted peppers and mushrooms to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Saute until the vegetables begin to soften, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
  • Deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in the olives, capers and lemon zest. Bring to a simmer and reduce by two-thirds, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Return the lamb to the pan and stir together to incorporate the flavors and heat through.
  • Serve the lamb with rice pilaf and garnish with the parsley.

LAMB WITH SAUTEED VEGGIES



Lamb With Sauteed Veggies image

My parents raised sheep for more than 30 years, so I have several lamb recipes. Not only are these chops tender, but they cook quickly. While the lamb broils, I saute zucchini and red pepper to accompany it. People always comment on this great combination. -Ruth Lee, Troy, Ontario
