Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g lamb shoulder, boneless
- 2 tbsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger, grated
- 1 tsp red chili flakes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 0.5 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Cut the boneless lamb shoulder into bite-sized cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add ground cumin, ground coriander, minced garlic, grated ginger, red chili flakes, sea salt, and black pepper to the lamb cubes.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the spices and lamb, and mix everything thoroughly to ensure the lamb is well-coated with the spice mixture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large oven-proof skillet or frying pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated lamb pieces to the hot pan and sear them for about 5 minutes on each side until they develop a brown crust.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the lamb for about 45 minutes or until it is tender and fully cooked through.
Remove the skillet from the oven, drizzle the lime juice over the cooked lamb, and sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro on top.
Serve the keto cumin lamb hot, garnished with extra cilantro if desired, and enjoy your delicious low-carb meal.
