09 Nov Mediterranean Style Lamb With Chickpeas
Serves 4 1lb. “lean” ground lamb | Place the lamb in a nonstick skillet and cook over medium heat. Stir constantly and break up the lamb as it cooks (approx. 6 minutes). Use a slotted spoon to remove the lamb from the skillet before discarding the drippings. Add the olive oil and allow it to coat the pan before adding the carrot and onion; sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the pepper, cumin, cinnamon, and coriander before adding the lamb, broth, tomato paste, lemon, raisins, chickpeas, and salt. While gently stirring, bring to a boil. Now, reduce the heat and allow the mixture to simmer until it thickens (approx. 4-5 minutes). Move the skillet off the heat and stir in the lemon juice and cilantro (or parsley). |
