Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven broiler. Season lamb shanks with salt and pepper to taste. Broil for
about 10 minutes, turning once to brown them. In the meantime, place garlic cloves in the bottom of a slow cooker.
Place browned lamb shanks on top of garlic. Pour in wine and beef broth. Sprinkle with rosemary. Cover and cook
on low heat setting for about 6 to 8 hours. Remove lamb shanks to a serving platter. Skim fat from slow cooker
liquid. Carefully pour liquid into a saucepan. Smoosh down any garlic cloves into a paste. Stir and reduce liquid by
about one-half over medium-high heat. Serve shanks with garlic sauce and enjoy!
