Final Thoughts

Ingredients (Serves 4)

• 4 bone-in pork shanks (about 1.5 lbs total)
  
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  
• 1 cup wholemeal breadcrumbs (or indulge with panko for extra crunch)
  
• 2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for pan
  
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
  
• 1 tsp fresh rosemary or thyme (or ½ tsp dried)
  
• ¼ cup dry white wine (or vegetable broth for vegetarian option)
  
• ½ cup chicken or vegetable broth
  
• 1 lemon, zested and sliced (optional for brightness)
  
• Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep the Pork: Generously season pork shanks with salt, pepper, and garlic. Let them marinate dry—this helps the breading stick better.

2. Ensemble the Breading Station:
   

   • Place breadcrumbs in a shallow dish.
     
   • Mix olive oil, rosemary, and a pinch of pepper.
     
   • Create a shallow bowl with flour, then set white wine and broth in another.
