Ingredients

1 lamb shoulder (1-1/2 lb.), trimmed, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
2 Tbsp. flour
3 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 leek, white and light green parts chopped
1-1/2 cups dark beer
1 cup fat-free reduced-sodium beef broth
1 env. (0.7 oz.) GOOD SEASONS Italian Dressing Mix
1 lb. baking potatoes (about 3), cut into 1-inch chunks
2 carrots (1/2 lb.), cut into 1-inch chunks
2 parsnips, peeled, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Toss lamb with flour until evenly coated; set aside. Cook and stir bacon in Dutch oven or large deep skillet until crisp. Remove bacon from pan with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 2 Tbsp. drippings from pan. Add lamb, in batches, to reserved drippings; cook on medium-high heat 4 to 5 min. or until evenly browned, stirring occasionally. Remove lamb from pan; cover to keep warm.
Add leeks to same pan; cook and stir 2 min. Stir in beer, broth and dressing mix. Return lamb to pan; stir. Bring to boil, stirring occasionally; cover. Simmer on medium-low heat 30 min., stirring occasionally.
Add potatoes, carrots and parsnips; stir. Simmer, covered, 30 min., stirring occasionally. Stir in parsley; simmer, uncovered, 15 min. or until vegetables are tender and sauce is thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in bacon.
