Time 2h55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 ½ pounds boneless lamb shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
salt to taste
1 onion, chopped
¾ cup chopped carrots
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (28 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
2 cups beef stock
2 sprigs thyme
1 sprig fresh rosemary
2 cups 1/2-inch cubes butternut squash

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Season lamb with salt.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook and stir 1/2 the lamb cubes in hot oil until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer browned meat with a slotted spoon to a plate, reserving drippings in the pot. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the Dutch oven. Cook and stir second 1/2 the lamb cubes until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer lamb to plate. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  • Cook and stir onion, carrots, and garlic in Dutch oven until slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir lamb cubes and any accumulated juices, tomatoes, beef stock, thyme, and rosemary into onion mixture and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cover Dutch oven with an oven-proof lid.
  • Cook stew in the covered Dutch oven in the preheated oven until the lamb is tender, 2 to 3 hours. Stir butternut squash cubes into stew, recover the Dutch oven, and return to the preheated oven until squash is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of lamb, but I really enjoyed this stew. The butternut squash and spices helped to balance out the flavor of the lamb.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The lamb was tough and the vegetables were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This stew was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
