is i just want to show you some of the ingredients that we uh put into the dish got a couple more that i'll introduce as we move along but uh let's move over to the cast iron skillet and start to get busy people let go all right so in this large cast iron skillet we uh put our three tablespoons of butter in here we're gonna let the butter melt [Music] then to that we're going to add our onions [Music] peppers [Music] and our celery and we're going to let this go for about five minutes until everything is nice and soft salted and uh you know have a little fun with it stir it around okay so add a little salt and pepper to the mix you can do it to your liking so we might add a little bit more later so i'm just adding maybe about a teaspoon or so fresh cracked black okay next we're going to add our we're going to add our garlic to the mix and then our seasoning blend we're gonna generously add that in there and we're gonna let that go another one two minutes just until it gets fragrant nice and fragrant people i can smell it already okay people and also if i fail to mention we're doing this on a medium heat right so about one to two minutes later it's smelling great already we're about to pour a cup and a half of uh low should i say the first low sodium chicken broth again that's about a cup and a half of low sodium chicken broth to the mix and we're gonna add three bay leaves that's another ingredient that was laying i forgot to tell y'all in the beginning but yeah we're gonna put two three bay leaves in that thing and uh we're gonna let that thing actually we're gonna bring it to a boil first we're gonna turn it up to about a medium high bring it to a boil okay now it's boiling we're gonna reduce it to a low and we're gonna let this thing simmer until it reduces by about 1 4 which takes about maybe six to eight minutes all right next we're going to take a 15 ounce can of whole tomatoes crushed we're going to add that to the mix just like that and uh we're going to give it a little stir and we're going to let that cook for another 10 minutes until it reduces by about half and keep you can let those uh bay leaves just float on the top it's going to add tremendous flavor to this thing [Music] all right next step we gonna add actually i took three uh green onions and chopped them up but i'm gonna add two to the mix and we're gonna save the third one for garnish and then we're going to take uh two tablespoons of uh worcestershire one two my favorite lamb berries worcestershire you can uh check in the description below if you want to find that i'm gonna give it a quick stir and we're gonna turn the heat off and set aside and get to the next step people okay so on a separate skillet i got a tablespoon of oil and i'm gonna take about a tablespoon of garlic butter you can make your own garlic butter or the one i use is uh some chef shammy garlic butter you can also find that on amazon you can look in the description you'll find that
