Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless lamb shoulder
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 2 medium carrots, diced
• 2 stalks celery stalks, diced
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes
• 6 cups beef broth
• 2 leaves bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Cut the lamb shoulder into 1-inch cubes, trimming any excess fat.

Step 2

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the lamb cubes and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the lamb and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Return the browned lamb to the pot. Add the cubed potatoes, diced tomatoes with their juice, and beef broth. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Add bay leaves, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 75-90 minutes, or until the lamb and vegetables are tender.

Step 8

Remove the bay leaves from the soup. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
