Equipment
- 1 Large plastic zip-top bag (to marinade)
- 1 Instant Pot
- 1 Large Salad Bowl
- 1 Tongs
Ingredients
Lamb + Marinade
- 1+ lbs S&B Bell Farms Lamb/Mutton Stew Meat
- 3 T. avocado or olive oil
- 2 T. fruit flavored balsamic vinegar (white pear is my favorite)
- 2 t. Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 cups Pomegranate Juice
- 1 t. salt
- 1 t. ground black pepper
- 3 large cloves oven roasted garlic
- 1 T. ground ginger
- 1 T. cinnamon
- 2 t. cumin
Salad + dressing
- 1 bag Solway Farms kale
- 1 package S&B Bell Farms "Basic Salad Mix" microgreens
- 1/4 c. avocado or olive oil
- 2 T. fruit flavored balsamic vinegar (white pear is my favorite)
- 2 t. Dijon mustard
- 1/2 c. sliced, seedless black grapes
Instructions
For the Marinade:
- In a large plastic zip-top bag, combine all ingredients shown for “Lamb +Marinade.” Be sure to smash the oven roasted garlic cloves and combine well. I find the best flavor when marinated overnight.
After the lamb has finished marinating:
- Add the trivet accessory to the Instant Pot, and then spritz the innercooking pot + trivet with avocado oil. Add¼ cup water to the base of the Instant Pot, and then using tongs - remove pieces of lamb and gently place ontop of the trivet. Overlapping isok! Please note: you will likely have leftover marinade thatwill not be used. Seal the Instant Pot and select “high pressure” for 35 minutes. When the timer beeps, allow the pressure tonaturally release for 15 minutes and then turn the valve to quick release.
To make the salad:
- Wash and de-stem the kale. Lay onclean kitchen towels and blot as much moisture off as possible (alternatively, youcan use a salad spinner)Wash the grapes, and carefully slice them in half.In a large serving bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, salt andpepper. Add the kale to the same bowl and mix well to cover in the dressing
To serve:
- Add a generous amount of salad to plates, and top with the warm lamb. Enjoy!
