Ingredients

• 2 pounds lamb shoulder, cubed
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large yellow onion, chopped
• 3 medium carrots, sliced
• 2 celery stalks, sliced
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 can (14.5 ounces) canned diced tomatoes
• 4 cups beef broth
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the lamb pieces and brown them on all sides, working in batches if necessary. This should take about 5 minutes per batch. Once browned, remove the lamb from the pot and set aside.

Step 2

Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the pot. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the tomato paste to the pot and stir to combine, cooking for another 2 minutes.

Step 5

Return the browned lamb to the pot. Add the diced tomatoes, beef broth, bay leaves, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

Step 6

Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot with a lid and let it simmer for about 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

After 90 minutes, add the cubed potatoes to the pot. Cover and cook for another 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 8

Add the frozen peas to the stew and cook for another 5 minutes until they are heated through.

Step 9

Remove the bay leaves before serving. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper to taste if needed.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
