Instructions
- Place a heavy-bottom pot over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add lamb shoulder chops to the pan. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Transfer the chops to a plate. (You can season your lamb with salt and pepper lightly)
- Turn the heat down to medium. In the same pan, add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add shallots and garlic and saute for 1 minute.
- Then add carrot and celery, and saute for about 2-3 minutes.
- Add tomato paste, wine, chicken broth, thyme, and bay leaves. Add salt and pepper to taste (I used 1/4 teaspoon of salt and pepper each, Don’t add too much at this point, as the sauce will be more salty when it thickens).
- Stir constantly until the tomato paste is dissolved.
- Add the lamb shoulder chops back to the pan. Arrange them so that they can be submerged.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes or until it comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a tight-fitting lid.
- Simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours or until the meat is fork-tender. Season with more salt to taste.
- Serve immediately, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and drizzle the sauce on top. (Optional: For a thicker gravy, remove the meat, and vegetables with a slotted spoon. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook uncovered to thicken the sauce. It takes about 20-30 minutes.)

Notes
- * I used two types of lamb shoulder chops in this recipe: blade chops and arm chops.
- ** You can substitute red wine for cooking wine for more beef broth.
- To store leftovers: Place them in an airtight container once cooled. They’ll last for about 3 days in the refrigerator.
- To reheat: The best way is to reheat on the stove. Add the leftovers to the pan over medium-low heat. Cook for about 5 minutes or until cooked through. You can add a bit of water if the sauce is too thick.
