Lamb-tastic Stew

Just because it's all about TURKEY TURKEY TURKEY right now, doesn't mean we can't throw a little love the lamb's way. What does the lamb say? Bah bah bbahhhb bu bah bah bah bahhhhhb bhahhh. (sorry, got a little distracted about what the lamb says!)

Make this when you are sick of turkey! It's yum yum yummy! And super easy.

Irish Lamb Stew

2 medium onions, chopped
1 T olive oil
2 1/2 lbs boneless leg of lamb, cut into 1 inch pieces
7 carrots, chopped
5 C chicken broth
1/4 C pearl barley
2 t dried thyme
1/2 C chopped italian parlsey
1 fresh herb medley for beef, tied. (bouquet garni)
1 bay leaf
12 medium-sized red potatoes
Salt and Pepper to taste

In a large, heavy saucepan, cook onions in oil over medium heat until translucent. Add lamb and brown. Add remaining ingredients except potatoes. Season with salt and pepper, stir to combine and bring to boil. Reduce to simmer, cover and cook for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Place potatoes on top of stew, cover and cook for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender and meat is falling apart.

Serve it up!
