Total Time:
30m
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds lamb steaks (top round or shoulder), bones removed and meat cut into 2-inch pieces
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 4 carrots, cut into 3-inch sticks
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
- 4 ounces green beans, cut into small pieces (about 1 cup)
- 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Directions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season the lamb with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until medium-rare, 6 to 8 minutes; transfer to a plate.
- Add the carrots, onion, and the remaining oil to the pot. Cook until beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and scrape up any brown bits.
- Add the broth, tomatoes, and beans. Simmer until the vegetables are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the lamb, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Serve immediately.
- To freeze: Cool the stew to room temperature and spoon into a freezer container or bag. Freeze for up to 3 months. To cook, thaw the stew in a bowl of cold water or overnight in the refrigerator. Transfer to a pot and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 10 to 20 minutes.

Quick Tip
This stew is perfect for a busy weeknight because it uses a quick-cooking, tender cut of lamb. After you return the lamb to
the pot in the last step, serve the stew as soon as possible, to keep the lamb from becoming tough.

Turnips
Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it
is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
