For the stew
- 2 lb boneless lamb shoulder, cut into 1 ½-inch cubes
- 1 ½ tsp fine sea salt, divided
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 bunch asparagus (about 12 oz), woody ends snapped off, cut into 2-inch pieces

Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, add the lamb in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes per side, until deep brown on at least two faces. Transfer the seared lamb to a plate and repeat with the second batch.
