GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH ROASTED GARLIC HORSERADISH SAUCE
Steps:
- To make pepper mixture combine black and white peppers, cayenne, and marjoram. Cover tightly and store in a cool place. Use to season red meats and game before cooking.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small ovenproof saute pan over medium heat. When hot, add garlic cloves and saute for 4 minutes or until golden brown. Place in preheated 350 degree oven and roast for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Remove from oven. Remove garlic from pan and cool. Set aside until ready to use.

Remove lamb bones and strain into a small saucepan. Add roasted garlic and grated horseradish. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Let sauce sit for 5 minutes to capture as much flavor from the garlic and horseradish as possible. Season with salt and lemon juice. Keep warm until ready to serve.
- Preheat grill. Make sure grates are clean and lightly rub or brush with oil. Brush chops with 3 tablespoons peanut oil and season to taste with salt and pepper mixture. Grill chops about 2 minutes or just long enough to mark one side. Turn chops and cook for about 2 minutes longer for medium-rare. Increase cooking time slightly for medium doneness. Remove chops from grill.
- Spoon Roasted Garlic Horseradish Sauce over the bottom of 4 warm dinner plates. Place 4 grilled lamb chops along the top of each plate, bones to the center. Garnish plates with sprigs of marjoram. Serve immediately.

LAMB SCHNITZELS WITH MINT-HORSERADISH PESTO
This is a lamb dish done schnitzel-style, devised as a pairing for blaufränkisch wine from Austria. Ask your butcher to pound slices of top round of lamb, from the leg, only lightly, which will result in pieces that are about a half-inch thick, providing enough tolerance so the meat can brown without overcooking. Refrigerating the coated slices before frying them helps, too. A pesto sauce, made with mint leaves and zapped with horseradish, picks up some of the herbal and pepper flavors in the wine. Warm potato salad in a vinaigrette dressing would be a perfect side dish for the schnitzel.

Steps:
- Spread flour on a dinner plate and season with salt, pepper and 2 teaspoons horseradish. In a shallow bowl, beat egg with 1 tablespoon water. Spread bread crumbs onto a dinner plate. Dip lamb pieces first in flour, shaking off excess, then in egg, then in crumbs. Place on a platter. Refrigerate.
- Place mint leaves and remaining horseradish in food processor and process until mint is minced. Slowly drizzle in olive oil through feed tube. Transfer to a serving bowl, stir in juice of 1 lemon and sour cream, season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Heat vegetable oil to a depth of about 1/2 inch in a 12-inch skillet to very hot. Add 2 slices of lamb and cook over medium-high heat until browned, turning once, about 2 minutes a side. Try to keep oil and lamb moving in pan by gently sliding pan on burner in a circular motion. When done, place lamb on several thicknesses of paper towel to drain. Repeat with remaining lamb. Lamb will be medium-rare. If you want it more well done, reduce heat to medium so it takes longer to cook.
- Transfer to a platter, and serve, with sauce and remaining lemon in wedges.

ROAST RACK OF LAMB WITH MINT SAUCE
The lamb that we buy today hardly requires a typical English mint sauce (the puckery flavor was originally designed to cut through the stronger taste of mutton), but the combination is by now a traditional and still-welcome one. Buttered carrots and a watercress salad would complement the lamb nicely. Uncork a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon or red Bordeaux.

Steps:
- To make lamb:
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Sprinkle lamb with salt and pepper. Spread 1 tablespoon mustard on each side of each lamb rack. Mix breadcrumbs and mint in medium bowl. Press breadcrumb mixture onto lamb, coating completely.
- Arrange lamb, meat side up, on large baking sheet with rim. Roast lamb 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Roast until thermometer inserted into lamb registers 130°F. for medium-rare, about 20 minutes longer.
- Transfer lamb to work surface. Tent with foil; let stand 5 minutes. Cut lamb racks between bones into chops. Arrange chops on plates. Garnish with mint sprigs; pass Mint Sauce separately.
- To make sauce:
- Combine 1 cup mint, broth, shallots, vinegar and sugar in heavy small non-aluminum saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Simmer 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand 2 hours.
- Strain sauce into large glass measuring cup. Place cornstarch in same saucepan. Gradually whisk in sauce. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Stir until sauce thickens slightly and turns translucent, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before continuing.) Stir in remaining 2 tablespoon mint. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Makes about 1 cup.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of lamb: A fatty cut of lamb, such as a leg of lamb or a shoulder of lamb, will be more flavorful and tender than a leaner cut.
- Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Cook the lamb over medium heat: Cooking the lamb over medium heat will help to prevent the meat from becoming tough.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the lamb is cooked to the desired doneness: The USDA recommends cooking lamb to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 170 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the lamb rest before carving: Letting the lamb rest for a few minutes before carving will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Grilled lamb with horseradish mint sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
