Provided by Vered DeLeeuw

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 rack of lamb (Frenched (cut so that the rib bones are exposed), 1 1/2 lb, 8 ribs)
Olive oil spray
1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • An hour before you start roasting the lamb, line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray it with olive oil spray.
  • Place the rack of lamb on the prepared baking sheet, fat side up. Score the fat by making small shallow slits, 1 inch apart.
  • Liberally spray both sides of the lamb with olive oil and sprinkle it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, and thyme. Allow the meat to rest on the counter for about an hour and come to room temperature.
  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Roast the meat in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part (and not touching the bone) reads 135 degrees F (medium-rare), about 25 minutes.
  • Remove the lamb from the oven. Transfer it to a cutting board. Cover with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • To cut the rack into individual ribs, turn it upside down, locate where the bones are, and carefully cut between them using a sharp chef's knife. Serve immediately.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup fresh bread crumbs
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (7 bone) rack of lamb, trimmed and frenched
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Move oven rack to the center position.
  • In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, garlic, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss in 2 tablespoons olive oil to moisten mixture. Set aside.
  • Season the rack all over with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy oven proof skillet over high heat. Sear rack of lamb for 1 to 2 minutes on all sides. Set aside for a few minutes. Brush rack of lamb with the mustard. Roll in the bread crumb mixture until evenly coated. Cover the ends of the bones with foil to prevent charring.

With a meat thermometer, take a reading in the center of the meat after 10 to 12 minutes and remove the meat, or let it cook longer, to your taste. Let it rest for 5 to 7 minutes, loosely covered, before carving between the ribs.

CRISP-ROASTED RACK OF LAMB

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 racks of lamb, each about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Strip most of the surface fat from the lamb. (Your butcher may already have done this.) Cut between the ribs, almost down to the meaty eye. Divide each rack in half down the middle, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in a roasting pan.
  • Roast for 15 minutes, then insert a meat thermometer straight in from one end into the meatiest part. If it reads 125 degrees or more, remove the lamb immediately. If it reads 120 degrees or less, put the lamb back for about 5 minutes, no more. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes; this will give you medium- to medium-rare lamb on the outer ribs, medium rare-to-rare in the center. Cook a little longer for more doneness. Serve, separating the ribs, if desired, by cutting down straight through them.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rack of lamb: Look for a rack that is evenly marbled and has a good amount of fat. This will help the lamb stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Season the lamb generously: Use a combination of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper to flavor the lamb. This will help create a delicious crust on the outside of the lamb and keep the inside moist.
  • Sear the lamb before roasting: Searing the lamb in a hot skillet will help create a flavorful crust and caramelize the outside of the lamb. This will also help keep the inside of the lamb moist.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness: The internal temperature of the lamb should reach 135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 155 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the lamb rest before carving: Let the lamb rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the lamb, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Crisp roasted rack of lamb is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. By following these tips, you can easily create a rack of lamb that is cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor.
