- (2 lbs.) Lamb Stew Meat
- (1/2 Tbsp. for lamb plus 1 tsp for stew) Salt
- (1 tsp for lamb plus 1/2 tsp for stew) Black Pepper
- (1/4 Cup) All-Purpose or Gluten-Free Flour
- (1, diced) Large Yellow Onion
- (4, minced) Garlic Cloves
- (1 1/2 Cups) Good Red Wine

- (4 (~10 oz.) peeled and cut into 1/2" thick pieces) Carrots
- (1/4 Cup, finely chopped) Fresh Parsley
Directions
- In a 5 Qt dutch oven, saute chopped bacon over medium heat until browned and fat released. With a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer bacon to a large plate.
- While bacon cooks, season lamb pieces with 1/2 Tbsp. salt and 1 tsp pepper. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup flour and toss to coat. Cook lamb in 2 batches in hot bacon grease over medium heat until browned (3-4 min per side) then transfer to the plate with bacon.
- Add diced onion and saute 2 min. Add garlic and cook another minute, stirring constantly. Add 1 1/2 cups wine, scraping the bottom to deglaze. Add sliced mushrooms, bring to simmer then cook uncovered 10 min.
- Preheat Oven to 325˚F.
- Return bacon and lamb to pot and add 4 cups broth, 1 Tbsp. tomato paste, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1/2 tsp dried thyme and 2 bay leaves. Stir in potatoes and carrots, making sure potatoes are mostly submerged in liquid. Bring to a boil then COVER and carefully transfer to preheated oven at 325˚F for 1 hr and 45 min. When done, potatoes and lamb will be very tender.
- Garnish with fresh parsley, serve!
