Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Pat the 2 lb lamb shoulder dry and season all over with 1 tsp salt and black pepper if you like.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Sear the lamb until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
Step 3
Add 4 sliced carrots, 2 sliced onions, 3 quartered tomatoes, and 4 smashed garlic cloves around the lamb. Tuck in 2 rosemary sprigs.
Step 4
Transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the lamb is tender and reaches 145°F for medium, about 40 minutes.
Step 5
Rest the lamb for 10 minutes, then slice and serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices.
Step 6
If you have them, add a pinch of chilli flakes or a squeeze of lemon before serving.
