Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high. Add 1.5 lb lamb chunks and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove lamb and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 sliced onion and 3 minced garlic cloves; cook until soft, about 4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in 2 sliced bell peppers and 1 tsp ground cumin; cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.

  4. Step 4

    Return lamb to pot. Add 14.5 oz diced tomatoes with their juices and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer.

  5. Step 5

    Cover and cook on low heat until lamb is tender, about 1.5 hours. Check occasionally, adding water if needed.

  6. Step 6

    Stir in 0.5 cup green olives and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
