Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, whole, plus 1 clove, finely chopped
  • 2 to 3 pounds young lamb, from the leg, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 2 salt-packed anchovies, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon salt, plus more
  • 1 cup white wine

Directions

In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat and add the butter. When the butter melts, add the 2 garlic cloves and saute until it begins to brown. Remove the garlic and add the lamb. Brown the meat on all sides, working in batches if necessary. In a small bowl, combine the rosemary, anchovies, vinegar, salt and remaining chopped garlic and mix well to combine. Add this mixture to the meat and cook over medium-low heat until the vinegar evaporates and the meat is tender. Moisten occasionally with some of the wine. The meat will take about 1 hour to cook.

    The recipe calls for 1 tablespoon of salt in the rosemary/anchovy mixture, which is way too much. Just salt the meat or at 1 teaspoon or less to the mixture. Also, in the show he finished it with fresh mint and parsley (I think, can't hurt. Otherwise this is a great recipe that people really like. It also uses affordable cuts of lamb, always a plus.
