- Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan. Season the lamb with salt and pepper then cook in the hot oil until browned; 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook stirring for 1 minute.
- Pour the red wine and chicken stock into the saucepan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon (deglazing). Reduce the heat to medium-low then add the tomatoes, oregano and bay leaf to the saucepan. Simmer gently until the lamb is tender; about 45 minutes.
- Raise heat to medium-high. Add the potatoes, green beans, red capsicum and zucchini to the pot. Cook until the vegetables are tender; another 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle the parsley over the casserole. Remove the bay leaf and season with salt and pepper before serving.

Didn't have fresh tomatoes, used canned, diced instead. This recipe even my husband loved! (And he hates everything) Will use this recipe to help the garden veggies' overflow when the season comes along. - 10 Jun 2009 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
