Lamb Tibs

 

Ingredients

  • 1¼ pounds boneless lamb leg, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • ½ teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • ½ medium onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1½ teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1½ teaspoons berbere seasoning
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • ¼ cup water

Directions

Step 1

Season lamb with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides but still pink in the center, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Step 2

Add butter to the pan, then onion, jalapeño, ginger, garlic, rosemary and berbere; cook, stirring often, until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add tomato and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomato is tender, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in water. Add the lamb to the sauce and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
