ROSEMARY BRAISED LAMB SHANKS

Lamb shanks are slowly simmered with fresh rosemary, garlic, tomatoes, and red wine. Great served with polenta, or my family's favorite--roasted garlic mashed potatoes--as you need something to soak up the wonderful sauce. A fantastic dish for company, as all the prep work is done at the beginning, and then you just have to wait.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup dry red wine
2 heaping tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons kosher or coarse sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
5 to 6 pounds lamb shanks, not trimmed of fat
1 large, firm head garlic (about 15 cloves), separated into cloves, each crushed and peeled (see Note)

1 large carrot, peeled and cut in 1/4-inch slices
Finely grated zest of 1 large lemon
2 heaping tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh rosemary leaves

Steps:

  • In a small bowl mix the red wine, mustard, salt, and pepper and place in the insert of the slow cooker. Layer the shanks in the insert so they fit. Scatter the remaining ingredients around and on the shanks. Cover and cook on HIGH for 6 hours. Use tongs to reverse the position of the shanks, top to bottom. Reduce the setting to LOW and cook for an additional 6 hours.
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the shanks to a serving platter. Skim the fat from the cooking juices, taste, and add salt and pepper, if needed. Pour the juices over the shanks, and serve.
  • Note:
  • For a less assertive garlic taste, use elephant garlic.

LAMB SHANKS BRAISED IN ROSEMARY RED WINE BBQ SAUCE



Lamb Shanks Braised in Rosemary Red Wine BBQ Sauce image

I'm a big fan of anything braised, and these lamb shanks fit the bill. The fall-off-the-bone tenderness of the meat and the richness of the stock really turn me on. Served on a pile of grits, it's outstanding.

Yield feeds 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 lamb shanks (about 4 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup olive oil
2 1/2 cups chopped onion
3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 cups dry red wine
2 cups beef broth or stock (to make your own, see page 169)
3 sprigs rosemary
1 cup Mutha Sauce (page 165)
1/2 cinnamon stick
Garlic & Cheddar Grits (page 126)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°. Grab a knife and make a couple of shallow slits through the silver skin on both sides of each shank. Sprinkle the meat on both sides with a generous amount of salt and pepper.
  • Schlepp a big, heavy frying pan over to the stove and heat it over medium-high. Pour in 1/3 cup olive oil and get it hot and fragrant. Add as many shanks as will fit comfortably in the pan without crowding, and cook til richly browned, about 4 minutes. Flip them over and brown the other side. Pull the shanks out and drop them in a roasting pan. Continue browning the rest of the shanks. Once all of them are done, clean out the pan and pour in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil.
  • Drag the pan back over medium-high heat and add the onions, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Cook til soft; then toss in the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Pour in the wine and broth and bring to a boil. Add the rosemary, Mutha Sauce, and cinnamon stick. Pour everything over the shanks and cover the roasting pan tightly with foil. Shove it in the oven to braise for 1 hour; then pull it out and give the shanks a flip. Pop them back in the oven to cook for another hour.
  • Once the shanks are tender and the meat is pulling away from the bone, lift them out onto a good-looking platter. Cover and keep warm. Strain the braising liquid, and skim the grease. Pour the braising liquid into a small pan and reduce by half. Keep warm.
  • Line up some dinner plates and mound a portion of Garlic & Cheddar Grits in the center of each one. Set a shank into each mound, spoon some of the sauce over each shank, and bring them to the table.

Tips:

  • To save time, you can brown the lamb shanks in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, in batches, if necessary. Remove the shanks from the pot and set aside. Then, add the vegetables and cook until softened. Add the browned lamb shanks back to the pot and continue with the recipe.
  • If you don't have red wine, you can substitute it with beef broth or even water. However, the red wine will add a lovely depth of flavor to the dish.
  • If you don't have fresh rosemary, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary. Be sure to add it to the pot along with the other spices.
  • The lamb shanks are done when they are fall-off-the-bone tender. To test, insert a fork into the meat. If it comes out easily, the shanks are done.
  • Serve the lamb shanks over mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite pasta. You can also ladle some of the braising liquid over the shanks before serving.

Conclusion:

Red wine and rosemary braised lamb shanks are a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The lamb shanks are braised in a flavorful combination of red wine, rosemary, garlic, and onions until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. Serve the lamb shanks over mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite pasta for a hearty and satisfying meal.
