Ingredients

  • 5 Whole Lamb Shanks
  • 1/4 Cup GF Flour
  • 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 Medium Yellow Onion rough chop
  • 2 Stalks Celery Ribs rough chop
  • 3 Whole Carrots rough chop
  • 3 Cups Chicken Broth
  • 28 Ounces Diced Tomatoes
  • 2 Sprigs Fresh Rosemary
  • 1/2 Cup Red Wine
  • 1 Tbsp Turkish Oregano

Instructions

  • Pat the lamb shanks dry and season with salt and pepper on all sides.
    In a large Dutch oven pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb shanks on all sides (about 8 mins or so). Remove the lamb shanks and set aside.  
    Next, add the onions, celery and carrots and rosemary.  Saute for 5-7 minutes on medium-high, or until the vegetables gain some color. Add red wine and scrape the bottom. Reduce the wine by half.
    Add the broth, tomatoes and remaining spices. Return lamb shanks back to the pot; press down to submerge. Boil for 3 plus hours.
    Serve the lamb shanks over orzo with roasted carrots.
    Enjoy!
