Osso Buco Lamb with Sun-dried Tomatoes

Perfect for a chilly spring night, this hearty dish is very delicious. The flavors are amazing. The lamb is fragrant with wine, rosemary, thyme and garlic, and falling-apart tender. My husband loved it and would be worthy of repeating.

By Yelena Strokin Serves: 2-3

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 - 2 lb. Osso Buco (sliced lamb shank)
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced lengthwise
  • 2 large carrots, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 2 sprigs thyme
  • sea salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 325 F.

2

Thoroughly pat dry the lamb steaks. Generously sprinkle with salt and pepper.

3

In a Dutch oven or large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When shimmering, add the lamb steaks and sear, without disturbing, for about five minutes on each side, until nicely browned. Remove steaks and set aside.

4

Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the onions and sauté for about two minutes. Add the carrots and sauté for about 5 minutes more, stirring. Add the garlic and the sun-dried tomatoes, stir again.

5

Next, deglaze the pot with the red wine. Add the wine and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to dislodge any delicious crisped bits on the bottom. Add the chicken stock and stir.

6

Return the lamb steaks to the pot, nestle the sprigs of rosemary and thyme within, and cover.

7

Transfer to the oven and cook for about 2 hours, until the meat is very tender. Check on it halfway through, flipping the steaks, add more stock if needed.

8

Serve over mash potatoes or rice with the vegetables around the meat.

Notes

I got the lamb osso buco at Costco, the lamb was cut and packed in Australia.
