Quick Skillet Lamb and Peach Hash

I love finding ways to make flavorful dinners feel effortless, and this lamb and peach hash is one of my absolute favorites. The combination of savory lamb with the sweetness of grilled peaches is surprisingly delicious, and it all comes together in one skillet, meaning less cleanup! If you've never cooked lamb before, don't be intimidated; this recipe is super forgiving and perfect for a weeknight meal.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground lamb
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• ½ tsp dried thyme
• ¼ tsp salt, plus more to taste
• ¼ tsp black pepper, plus more to taste
• 2 ripe but firm peaches, pitted and diced
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground lamb and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess fat.
2. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add the diced peaches to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are slightly softened and heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
6. Serve the hash hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
