Grilled Lamb Shank

Grilled Lamb Shank is a savory and aromatic dish featuring tender lamb marinated in a blend of spices, then grilled to perfection. This Halal Chinese BBQ delight is sure to impress with its rich flavors and melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Ingredients

• Lamb shank - 2 pieces (approximately 500g each)
• Soy sauce - 60ml
• Shaoxing wine - 30ml
• Honey - 30g
• Garlic - 4 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 tablespoon, grated
• Five-spice powder - 1 teaspoon
• Chili flakes - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh coriander - for garnish
• Lemon - 1, cut into wedges

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, five-spice powder, chili flakes, black pepper, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
2. Place the lamb shanks in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the lamb is well-coated, seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the lamb shanks from the marinade and let any excess drip off, reserving the marinade.
4. Grill the lamb shanks for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade, until they are cooked through and have a nice char.
5. Once cooked, allow the lamb shanks to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
6. Garnish with fresh coriander and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
