EASY BRAISED LAMB SHANKS RECIPE
Super tender, perfectly spiced braised lamb shanks and vegetables in a rich red wine sauce. Cooking lamb shanks is easier than you might think. Simply season, sear, and braise! It's the perfect lamb shank recipe for a small gathering! A dry red wine is your best bet for the red wine sauce. (Merlot is my favorite here, but a Cabernet Sauvignon would work well, too.) Serve rosemary lamb shanks with couscous, Lebanese rice, or pita to soak up all the delicious sauce. Start this rich, meaty dinner with a big bright salad like arugula salad or white bean salad.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, add all the spice mix ingredients and mix to combine.
- Pat the lamb shanks dry and season with the spice mix on all sides.
- In a large Dutch oven pot like this one, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the lamb shanks on all sides (about 8 mins or so). Transfer the lamb shanks to a large tray or bowl for now. Carefully dispose of extra fat in a separate heat-safe bowl, and return the pot to heat.
- Now add the onions, celery, carrots and potatoes. Saute for 5-7 minutes on medium-high, or until the vegetables gain some color. Add red wine, scrape the pot of brown bits. Cook briefly so that the wine reduces a bit.
- Add the broth, tomatoes, cinnamon sticks, thyme, and rosemary. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper. Return lamb shanks back to the pot; press down to submerge. Boil for 10 minutes. Turn heat off.
- Cover the pot and transfer to the 350 degrees F-heated oven. Cook in the oven for 2 1/2 hours (It's a good idea to check periodically through cooking just in case you need to add a little more liquid. When the shanks finish cooking, the liquid will have reduced to about 1/3 of what it was when you started.)
- While the lamb shanks are cooking, prepare rice according to this recipe, or prepare 2-3 cups of orzo pasta according to package instructions.
- Serve the lamb shanks hot with a little of the veggies and braising sauce on top of rice or orzo pasta. You might also like to prepare a side salad like this 3-ingredient Mediterranean salad or Fattoush. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 240 degrees. In a Dutch oven over medium-low heat, heat oil and 4 tablespoons butter. Add shanks, and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 20 minutes. Season the shanks with salt, and transfer to a platter. Add carrots, turnips, and shallots to the Dutch oven, saute 4 minutes, and transfer to the same platter as the lamb shanks. Drain the fat from the pan. Add enough water to just cover the bottom of the pan, and bring to a boil to deglaze the pan, scraping up any cooked-on bits with a wooden spoon. Add the shanks and vegetables back to the pan. Add enough water to just cover. Reduce heat to just below a simmer. Add bay leaves, rosemary, sage, and garlic. Cover, and transfer to oven. Cook 2 1/2 hours. During the last hour, add celery and more water, if necessary, to cover. Transfer the Dutch oven from the oven to the top of the stove.
- Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees. Using a slotted spoon, gently transfer shanks and vegetables to a large bowl. Place Dutch oven on the stove over medium-high heat, and reduce the stock by two-thirds. Return shanks and vegetables to the Dutch oven with the reduced stock, and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, basting regularly until the shanks are glazed and shiny. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a saute pan over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon butter and 2 tablespoons water. Add cabbage, and saute 3 minutes. In a separate pan, repeat the cooking process with haricots verts.
- Place 1/2 cup sauteed cabbage in the center of each plate. Place one shank on top. Garnish with vegetables, placing haricots verts on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place lamb shanks on a large rimmed baking sheet; season generously with salt and pepper. Mix cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, and cardamom in a small bowl; massage spice mixture into lamb. Let rest 1 hour at room temperature or chill uncovered up to 12 hours (the longer, the better).
- If chilling, let shanks sit at room temperature 1 hour for even roasting.
- Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large pot over medium-high. Working in batches, cook lamb shanks until brown on all sides, 10-15 minutes. Transfer lamb to paper towels to drain.
- Wipe out pot and let cool slightly so that vegetables don't burn. Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in pot over medium. Add onions, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and softened, 8-10 minutes. Add thyme sprigs, garlic, and bay leaves and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle flour over and stir vigorously to evenly distribute. Cook, stirring often, until flour is absorbed, about 1 minute. Add wine; bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Gradually stir in broth, pomegranate juice, and pomegranate molasses. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors meld, about 5 minutes.
- Arrange lamb shanks in a single layer in a large roasting pan. Pour in onion mixture and push lamb shanks down into liquid (about three-quarters of lamb shanks should be submerged; add more broth if needed). Cover pan with foil and cook lamb, turning occasionally, until meat is fork-tender and almost falling off the bone, 1 1/2-2 hours. Remove pan from oven and let lamb rest, covered, in liquid at least 30 minutes.
- Transfer lamb to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm. Strain braising liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium saucepan; skim off fat from surface and discard. Add walnuts to braising liquid and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Cook until reduced by one-third, 15-20 minutes (sauce should be slightly thickened and velvety). Add butter a piece at a time, stirring after each addition until incorporated before adding more; sauce should look glossy. Return lamb to pot and cook, stirring to coat, until heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Arrange lamb over polenta on a platter and spoon walnuts and sauce over; top with lemon zest.
- Do Ahead
- Lamb shanks can be braised 1 day ahead. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled.
