Greek-Style Lamb Burritos
- 1 lb. ground lean lamb
- 1/2 c. regular-strength chicken broth
- 1 large (1/2 lb.) onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 large (1/2 lb.) red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and chopped
- 1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
- 1/2 tsp. each: sugar and ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp. each: ground cloves and ground nutmeg
- 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp. chopped parsley
- 1/8 tsp. liquid hot pepper seasoning
- 8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
- salt
- unflavored nonfat yoghurt
- Crumble lamb into 10 to 12-inch frying pan over medium heat, stirring often, until meat is well browned.
- With a slotted spoon, transfer lamb from pan.
- Discard drippings and wipe pan clean with paper towel.
- To pan, add broth, onion, garlic and bell pepper. Stir occasionally on high heat until pan is almost dry, then stir often until dark brown bits stick in pan.
- Stir bits free with 2 to 3 tablespoons water.
- Repeat until brown bits form, then deglaze pan again with 2 to 3 tablespoons water.
- Repeat this step until onions have a deep, rich brown color, about 15 minutes total.
- Return lamb to pan along with tomato sauce, 1 cup water, sugar, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, lemon juice, parsley and hot pepper seasoning.
- Stir to free browned bits.
- Bring to boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered until mixture is reduced to about 3 cups, 15 to 20 minutes.
