Fragrant Slow-Cooked Lamb with Sweet Apricots
Tender, pull-apart lamb shoulder braised in aromatic spices and simmered with sweet dried apricots, creating a rich, complex sauce. Served over fluffy cauliflower rice, this dish features melt-in-your-mouth meat enriched with warming cinnamon, ginger, and garlic notes.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces lamb shoulder, trimmed
4 dried apricots
1 cup cauliflower rice
1/4 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
PREPARATION
Heat olive oil in a slow cooker on the sauté setting or in a pan over medium-high heat
Season lamb shoulder with salt and pepper
Sear lamb on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side
Add diced onion and minced garlic to the pot, sauté until softened
Add ground cinnamon, ginger, and cumin, stirring to coat the meat and vegetables
Place dried apricots around the lamb
If using a slow cooker, cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-6 hours until meat is tender and easily pulls apart
While the lamb is finishing, prepare the cauliflower rice by pulsing cauliflower florets in a food processor until rice-like consistency is achieved
Sauté the cauliflower rice in a separate pan over medium heat until tender, about 5-7 minutes
Once lamb is done, shred it with two forks
Serve the fragrant lamb and apricots over the cauliflower rice
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired
