  • Total Time: 16 minute
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 lamb shanks
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3 carrots, chopped
  • 3 celery stalks, chopped

  • 2 cups apple vinegar
  • 2 cups beef stock
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 3 sprigs thyme

Instructions

  1. Season lamb shanks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and sear the shanks until browned on all sides (about 5-7 minutes). Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, sauté onion, carrots, celery, and garlic for about 5 minutes until softened. Stir in tomato paste and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Deglaze with apple vinegar, scraping up any browned bits from the pot; simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Return lamb shanks to the pot along with beef stock and herbs. Bring to a gentle simmer and cover.
  5. Cook until tender: Oven (325°F for 2-3 hours), Slow Cooker (low for 6-8 hours), or Instant Pot (high pressure for 45 minutes followed by natural release).
