Note

Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.

Substitute the cranberry sauce with pomegranate molasses or balsamic glaze for a different flavor profile.

For a vegetarian version, omit the lamb and use roasted chickpeas or grilled halloumi instead.

Ensure the lamb is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 145ðF (63ðC) for medium-rare.

Add a pinch of cinnamon or allspice to the sauce for a warm, aromatic twist.
