What You'll Need

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup canned beef broth
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup strongly brewed coffee (at room temperature)
1 1/2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

What to Do

Trim fat from lamb. Place lamb between two sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and flatten to 1/2-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or rolling pin; cut into 1-inch pieces.
Cook lamb in hot olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat 6 minutes or until browned on all sides. Remove meat from skillet; set aside.
Add onions to skillet; cook 2 minutes or until lightly browned and tender, stirring often. Add garlic, and cook 30 seconds, stirring often. Remove onion mixture from skillet, and set aside.
Pour beef broth and wine into skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes. Combine coffee and remaining 4 ingredients, stirring until smooth; pour into skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is thickened. Add lamb and onion mixture; simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
