Lamb Shanks recipe

Shanks may be one of modern cooks’ most underrated meat dishes—but they are deliciously savory and juicy. A must-try for newcomers.

Ingredients:

6 lamb shanks
¼ cup all-purpose flour
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
½ teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons olive oil
¾ cup chopped onion
¾ cup chopped celery
¾ cup chopped carrot
1 clove garlic, chopped
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
¾ cup dry red wine
¾ cup beef stock

Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 350°F.

2) Combine flour, salt, pepper, and oregano in a small bowl; dip shanks into mixture to coat.

3) Heat oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high; add lamb and brown on all sides, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes. Add onion, celery, carrot, garlic, and thyme; cook until softened, stirring, about 4 minutes.

4) Add wine and stock to skillet; bring to a boil over high heat. Transfer to oven. Cook until meat is tender, about 90 minutes. Serve warm.
