Tender shanks seared to perfection and simmered in a fragrant white wine, tomato, and aromatic herb sauce. Blanched citrus zests simmered directly into the sauce add that unmistakable depth of flavor Julia mastered so brilliantly!
If you’re looking for the ultimate weekend comfort food, this is it. Taking classic bone-in beef shanks and slow-simmering them in a rich red wine and aromatic broth until they are absolutely fork-tender and falling off the bone is the best.
Seared to perfection, then slow-cooked for five hours in a rich, savory Sherry and beef broth reduction with fresh thyme, celery, and onions. The meat is so tender it literally melts away from the bone. Pair it with some creamy mashed potatoes or polenta to soak up all that incredible gravy, and you have the ultimate weekend comfort feast.
