Lamb Shanks Recipes

Lamb Shanks Recipes

Lamb shanks are different from the shoulder and arm of a sheep and so they comprise a half of the spherical shoulder bone and a few leg bone. Lamb shanks are covered in a skinny fat layer and they do well when braised or cooked slowly in liquid or cooking them in crock pot or slow cooker.

Lamb is rich in flavor. It is also rich in protein and vitamin B. If you want a gentle taste select foreleg shanks. If you want a stronger flavor go for rear leg shanks. Lamb can be braised or slow cooked in wine, broth or water. You may braise them in the oven instead of using a cooker.
