Good but needed some clarifications and adjustments. I browned the shanks first and then the onions....added 2 cloves of garlic. The directions for oregano seemed off, 3 teaspoons of dried oregano would be a lot so I used 1 tsp. The lamb shanks could have been more tender and next time I will add 1/2 hr before adding the orzo. I love 1 pot dinners so I will make this again.
