Fig Lamb Stew
We love a hearty stew. This lamb stew has gorgeous figs for sweetness and butter beans for extra protein. Make it for a cold evening and enjoy the flavorsome leftovers the next day.

Instructions
- Add oil to a large frying pan over medium-high heat and sear the lamb in batches. Set aside. Add onions and garlic to the frying pan and fry until soft, about 7 minutes.
- Add all stew ingredients (except butter beans) to a slow cooker. Stir and cook on high for 3-4 hours, or until the lamb is beautifully tender. When the stew is almost done add the butter beans and season liberally with salt and pepper.
