Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working in two batches if needed, sear lamb until browned on all sides, ~8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
Step 2
Add onion to the same skillet and sauté until softened, ~3 minutes. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Step 3
Stir in paprika and cumin, coating the onion, then add tomatoes and their juice. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
Step 4
Return lamb to the skillet. Pour in broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until lamb is tender, ~8 minutes.
Step 5
Add bell pepper, stir, and simmer uncovered until pepper is tender-crisp and sauce is thick, ~4 minutes.
Step 6
Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in shallow bowls.
