This is an easy meal to prepare and it tastes great. You can substitute the lamb with beef if you want. Serve with plain yogurt if desired.
Recipe Ingredients
- 1 pound ground lamb
- 2 (14.5 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes, undrained
- 1 stalk celery, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 cup uncooked orzo pasta
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Cooking Directions
- 1 Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the lamb, and cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking up into crumbles, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and their juice, celery, orzo, salt, cayenne pepper, and garlic. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the orzo is tender and has absorbed the liquid from the tomatoes, about 12 minutes.
