Ingredients
1 boneless leg of lamb or lamb shoulder (3 to 4 pounds)
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 large green pepper, sliced
1 large sweet red pepper, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
16 flour tortillas (7 inches), warmed
Chopped tomato and cucumber, optional
Directions
Cut lamb into thin bite-size strips. In a large resealable plastic
bag, combine the oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, sugar, vinegar,
Worcestershire, mustard and pepper; add lamb. Seal bag and turn to
coat; refrigerate for 3 hours, turning occasionally.
Transfer lamb and marinade to a Dutch oven or large saucepan; bring
to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until
meat is tender. Add peppers and onion; cook 4 minutes longer or
until vegetables are crisp-tender.
