Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add lamb chunks and sear without stirring for 2 minutes per side until browned. Work in batches if crowded.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in spice blend and cook 30 seconds until fragrant, then add broth, honey, apricots, and a pinch of salt.

  4. Step 4

    Add carrots and zucchini, stir once, and cover. Simmer 8–10 minutes until vegetables are tender and lamb is cooked through.

  5. Step 5

    Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve hot in bowls with the broth spooned over.
