I had cooked 2 large lamb shoulder chops the night before. I had leftover lamb. I cut up the meat, and got all the things I wanted to cook with it. This is what came out. This dish is so flavorful!

Ingredients:
1-1 1/2 cup cut-up lamb pieces, cooked (I used leftover lamb shoulder chops)
2 cans (14 oz) diced tomatoes
1/2 bag baby spinach
1/2 cup feta cheese
4-5 leaves fresh basil, chopped
1/2 cup water
1 can small pitted black olives, halved
Seasonings; minced garlic or fresh, minced onion (I tried making it a quick and simple dinner), black pepper, old bay seasoning, 1 Tbsp sugar
1 pkg egg noodles or a real Greek dish would serve rice
Steps:
Using a wide deep skillet with a cover. Put a little olive oil and 1 Tbls of butter in the pan. Wait until it is hot.
Drop in lamb, braise it a bit, add tomatoes and a can of water, stirring!
Add spices, let this simmer and do a taste test for seasoning! Adjust as needed.

Cook the noodles and set aside and keep warm, add a few drops of olive oil
Add the baby spinach on top with the feta cheese! Keep heat on simmer for 10 minutes.
Its ready to serve. I used a deep dish bowl, put the noodles in the bowl, then a large spoonful of the lamb, spinach, tomatoes and feta over them.
