* 2 large white onions, chopped
* 4 lamb shanks
* 2 cups dry red wine
* 1 cup balsamic vinegar
* 1/3 cup olive oil
* 4 cloves garlic, pressed
* 2 lemons, quartered
* 2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
* 1 bunch fresh basil, chopped
* 1 tablespoon kosher salt
* 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
DIRECTIONS
* Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
* Place the onions in a layer in the bottom of a Dutch oven or medium roasting pan with a lid. Arrange the lamb shanks on top of the onions. Pour the wine, balsamic vinegar and olive oil over the lamb. Place a clove of pressed garlic next to each shank, and a quarter of a lemon on each side. Pour the tomatoes over everything, then season with salt, pepper and basil.
