Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 4 whole (about 3¾ pounds) lamb shanks
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup water
- 2 large sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 sprigs fresh parsley

- Add onions, carrots and celery to Dutch oven. Sauté until vegetables are brown, about 8 minutes.
- Return shanks to the Dutch oven. Pour wine over the meat and boil until all liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and tomato paste. Cook 1 minute. Add broth, water, rosemary, thyme and parsley. Cover; bake in oven until shanks are tender, about 1½ hours.
