Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Lamb

Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F). In a large oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the lamb shank with salt and black pepper, then sear it in the pot until browned on all sides.

2

Add Aromatics

Add the minced garlic and fresh rosemary to the pot, and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.

3

Simmer with Tomatoes

Pour in the canned diced tomatoes and water or broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover the pot with a lid and transfer it to the preheated oven.

4

Roast the Lamb

Let the lamb shank roast in the oven for about 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone. Check occasionally and add more water/broth if needed.

5

Cook the Rice

While the lamb is roasting, cook the rice according to package instructions. Typically, this involves rinsing the rice, adding it to boiling water, covering, and simmering until fluffy.

6

Serve

Once the lamb is done, carefully remove it from the oven. Serve the tender lamb shank over a bed of rice, and garnish with fresh parsley.
