Ingredients

  • 3 lb lamb shoulder bone-in or boneless, excess fat trimmed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary finely chopped
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 1 cup beef broth low sodium preferred
  • 1 medium yellow onion roughly chopped

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Make-Ahead: You can sear the lamb and prep the rub the night before. Variations: Substitute dried rosemary (use 2 teaspoons) if fresh is unavailable. Serve over mashed potatoes, polenta, or crusty bread to soak up the juices.
