  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 pound lamb stew meat, cubed
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced

DIRECTIONS

  1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan, and brown the lamb meat on all sides. Drain fat, and stir in the beef broth and wine. Season with garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
