Instructions
- Pat the shanks dry with paper towel. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add the flour to a shallow bowl and dredge each side of the shanks, shaking off any excess.
- Heat a dutch oven over high heat with oil. Sear each side of the shanks, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- In the same dutch oven, add the finely diced onions and carrots. Add more oil if needed. Cook on medium-high heat until softened, about 6 minutes.
- Add the garlic, and tomato paste. Stir until mixed in. Place the shanks back into the dutch oven.
- Pour in the wine and chicken broth until shanks are 3/4 covered. Add the bay leaves. Bring the liquid to a simmer. Turn the heat down to low.
- Cover with a lid and cook until the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender, about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
- Serve with your favorite side. Enjoy!
