Recipe Summary Osso Bucco-Style Beef Shank

Simple and delicious! Best served over rice, this makes tender beef and delicious sauce to which fresh spinach can be added for a touch of green. Serve over rice.

Ingredients | Veal Osso Buco Recipe Video

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, chopped

1 pound beef shank

¼ teaspoon dried thyme

¼ teaspoon dried oregano

¼ teaspoon dried rosemary

¼ teaspoon dried marjoram

1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes

1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste

water

1 tablespoon lemon zest

1 teaspoon sea salt

½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Increase heat to medium-high. Add beef shank and cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Return onion and garlic to the pan. Sprinkle thyme, oregano, rosemary, and marjoram over beef.

Pour tomatoes and tomato paste into the pan. Fill the empty tomato paste can with water and pour into the pan. Stir in lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until beef is very tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Substitute 4 fresh tomatoes - blanched, peeled and diced - for the canned tomatoes if desired.

Towards the end, you can add your favorite vegetable to the pot (I like spinach with this, although it does get soggy).
