Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb cubed lamb shoulder, 2 tbsp harissa paste, 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Toss until lamb is evenly coated.
Step 2: Spread the seasoned lamb evenly on a large rimmed baking sheet. Arrange 1 sliced red bell pepper, 1 sliced zucchini, 1 cut red onion, and 1 cup cherry tomatoes evenly around the lamb.
Step 3: Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring vegetables halfway through, until lamb is cooked through and vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Step 4: Remove from oven and sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro over the top. Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over lamb and vegetables.
