Ingredients

  • 4 pieces lamb steaks
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves
  • 1 medium onion
  • 400 grams canned crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 100 milliliters red wine
  • 100 grams feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Season the lamb steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 4

Mince the garlic and finely chop the onion. Add both to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute to caramelize slightly.

Step 6

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and red wine, then stir in the dried oregano and ground cinnamon. Let the sauce simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Return the lamb steaks to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover the skillet and let the lamb simmer gently in the sauce for another 10-15 minutes, or until cooked to your desired doneness.

Step 8

Crumble the feta cheese over the lamb steaks and sauce just before serving.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with crusty bread or a side of rice.
