Low-Oil Herb Lamb Stir Fry | Healthy & Flavorful Lamb Recipe

 🕒 Total Time:

25–30 minutes

🍽️ Serves:

2–3 people


🌿 Ingredients:

  • Boneless lamb (trimmed of fat) – 500 g

  • Olive oil – 1 tablespoon

  • Garlic (chopped) – 1 tablespoon

  • Ginger (chopped) – 1 teaspoon

  • Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon

  • Black pepper powder – ½ teaspoon

  • Dried herbs (thyme, oregano, or rosemary) – 1 teaspoon

  • Salt – to taste

  • Mixed vegetables (capsicum, broccoli, carrots) – 1 cup

  • Water – 3–4 tablespoons


👨‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Step 1 – Marinate:
    Wash and clean the lamb. Mix with lemon juice, ginger, garlic, dried herbs, salt, and black pepper.
    Let it rest for 15 minutes.

  2. Step 2 – Cook the lamb:
    Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan.
    Lightly sauté the lamb for 2–3 minutes, then cover and cook on medium heat for 10–12 minutes until tender.

  3. Step 3 – Add vegetables:
    Once the meat is nearly done, add the chopped vegetables.
    Stir-fry for another 5 minutes — the veggies should stay slightly crunchy and colorful.

  4. Step 4 – Finish:
    Drizzle a few drops of lemon juice at the end for a fresh, tangy finish.
    Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let it sit for 2 minutes before serving.


🌱 Healthy Tips:

  • Always remove excess fat from the lamb before cooking — it lowers cholesterol.

  • Using olive oil instead of regular oil reduces unhealthy fats.

  • Garlic and herbs add natural antioxidants and help digestion.


🍽️ Serving Suggestions:

Serve warm with brown rice, quinoa, or steamed vegetables.
For a balanced meal, add a side of yogurt salad or hummus.
