More Easy Meals: Lamb Shoulder

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

lamb shoulder and potatoesHave I mentioned that I love Trader Joe’s? Yesterday after getting home from work, BK got dinner ready for us. It did not take too much to get it started. He had bought a lamb shoulder from Trader Joe’s that was already marinated, that you cook directly in the bag it comes in. 400 degrees for 45 minutes. He also chopped 2 potatoes into fat wedges and coated them with garlic, salt, paprika, and olive oil. Those went onto the same cookie sheet with the lamb and cooked right along side them while we went for a 40 minute walk. When we got back, the plates were loaded, along with some hummus and olives on the side. The lamb was juicy and tender, and the mint in the marinade really came through so that the meat was almost sweet. I mentioned to him I most likely would have walked right past pre-marinaded meat, but that it was really delicious. The potatoes were good, too: crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

And now I have lunch for today…
