Ingredients

• 200 grams beef bone marrow
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 medium, finely chopped shallots
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1.5 cups low sodium beef stock
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon, chopped fresh thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon, freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Place the beef marrow bones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the marrow is soft and starting to separate from the bone.

Step 3

Once done, remove the bones from the oven and let cool slightly.

Step 4

In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and minced garlic and sauté until they are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Scoop the marrow out from the bones and add it to the saucepan with the shallots and garlic. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Pour in the low sodium beef stock and balsamic vinegar. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer.

Step 7

Add chopped thyme and freshly ground black pepper to the sauce, and continue to simmer for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce should reduce and thicken.

Step 8

Once the sauce has reached the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and fresh parsley for a bright finish.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately over lean meats or roasted vegetables for a heart-healthy indulgence.
