Directions

Step 1

Cut the boneless lamb shoulder into bite-sized cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add ground cumin, ground coriander, minced garlic, grated ginger, red chili flakes, sea salt, and black pepper to the lamb cubes.

Step 3

Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the spices and lamb, and mix everything thoroughly to ensure the lamb is well-coated with the spice mixture.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

In a large oven-proof skillet or frying pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Add the marinated lamb pieces to the hot pan and sear them for about 5 minutes on each side until they develop a brown crust.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the lamb for about 45 minutes or until it is tender and fully cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the oven, drizzle the lime juice over the cooked lamb, and sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro on top.
