Lamb Shank is a tender, flavorful cut of meat that comes from the lower part of the lamb’s leg. Often featured in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, it’s typically slow-cooked until the meat falls off the bone, releasing rich, savory flavors. This dish is often braised with aromatic herbs, garlic, and savory spices, creating a delectable sauce perfect for pairing with rice or crusty bread. While lamb can be higher in fat, it's also a great source of protein, iron, and essential vitamins. Enjoying lamb shank in moderation can be a delicious and satisfying addition to a balanced diet.
