Ingredients

  • 1 pound cubed lamb stew meat

  • ½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 2 teaspoons butter

  • 1 medium sweet onion, diced

  • 1 medium shallot, diced

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 cups diced butternut squash

  • 2 cups chopped white mushrooms

  • 1 cup diced sweet potato

  • 1 cup diced carrots

  • 1 cup diced celery

  • 2 cups beef bone broth

  • 1 cup Marsala wine

  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary

  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme, or to taste

Directions

  1. Season lamb with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.

  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, shallot, and a pinch of salt; saute until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add lamb and brown for 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a slow cooker.

  3. Add butternut squash, mushrooms, sweet potato, carrots, and celery; mix ingredients. Add bone broth and Marsala wine; it won't look like enough liquid but don't worry. Place rosemary and thyme on top.

  4. Cover and cook on High for 4 hours. Lift fresh herbs and stir the stew. Replace herbs, cover, and cook on Low until vegetables and lamb are tender, about 2 more hours.

  5. Remove herbs before serving.
