Best 6 Herb Marinated Rack Of Lamb Recipes

HERB MARINATED GRILLED RACK OF LAMB

Steps:

• Make sure that the rack of lamb bones has been "Frenched cut".(This is to remove the excess fat and fascia away from the bone to give abetter appearance for serving) Remove any excess fat.
• In a large sealable baggie or bowl add the rack of lamb, za'atar seasoning, chopped garlic, parsley and olive oil. Mix well and rub the mix into the rack of lamb. (Do not add the salt until you are ready to put it on the grill as this can draw out the moisture in the meat and make it tougher)
• Marinate rack of lamb for 4 hours or up to overnight. In a pinch can marinate for 30 minutes, while the lamb is coming to room temperature before grilling. Remove the marinating rack of lamb from the refrigerator and place it at room temperature for 30 minutes. (This keeps the meat cooking evenly)Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Clean and prepare the grill. Oil your grill grates lightly with a cloth. We did not wrap the ribs of the lamb in aluminum foil to prevent burning and we had no issues. If you want to do this, go for it. Salt and pepper your lamb rack well on both sides.
• GRILLING DIRECTIONS: Place your rack of lamb skin side down for 5 minutes over direct heat, allow to sear with the lid of the grill down. Turn the rack of lamb over on the other side and cook for the remaining time. For us, that was another 8 minutes. Make sure you take your rack of lamb off the grill about 2to 5 degrees BEFORE it comes to your desired temperature as it will raise another 5 degrees upon resting. However, it depends on how you want lamb cooked. We highly suggest not cooking your lamb any more than medium rare at the most for the best flavor and texture. Blue Bloody Rare - 125 degrees F (51 degrees C) Med Rare - 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) (our preferred cooking level)Medium - 145 degrees F (62 degrees C) Med Well - 155 degrees F (68 degrees C) Well Done - 165 degrees F (73 degrees C)
• After you take your rack of lamb off the grill, Tent lamb lightly with aluminum foil and allow it to rest for about 10 minutes before carving.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and herbs as desired before serving.
• OVEN DIRECTIONS: No Grill. No problem! Our suggestion is to prepare our Herb Marinated Rack of Lamb with the rub as stated in the recipe. Then take out your lamb out of the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes up to an hour before cooking in the oven to allow it to come to room temperature. This is so that it cooks evenly. Next, preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (232 degrees C). Cook lamb uncovered for 10 minutes. Then, reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F (148 degrees c) for an additional 10 - 20 minutes. Start checking the internal temperature of your rack of lamb at the start of the 10 minute mark. If you like your rack of lamb medium rare like we do then take it out at 135 degrees F. Tent with a little foil and let rest.

HERB-CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F/220 degrees C.
• Season the meat with salt and pepper. Mix together the oil and mustard, then slather all over the rack to coat well. Mix together the breadcrumbs, cheese and herbs, then pack the mixture onto the lamb rack.
• Place the lamb on a rack, bones arching upwards, in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it and place in oven. Roast until the meat is done to your liking. 20 minutes will give you medium-rare meat. Let the meat rest out of the oven 10 minutes before carving.

RACK OF LAMB WITH HERB CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees with rack in center. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Rub lamb with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in skillet, and sear until golden brown all over (including ends), about 3 minutes per side. Place on a baking sheet. Let stand until cool, about 30 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs, rosemary, garlic, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Brush lamb with 2 tablespoons Dijon, making sure the entire surface is covered. Pat seasoned breadcrumbs over rack (reserve any remaining breadcrumbs for another use), covering Dijon in an even layer. Return to baking sheet, and roast until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 130 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before carving into individual chops.

HERB-CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200 degrees Celsius Select a skillet that can go in the oven as well as on the cooker.
• Cut each rack into 3-4 bones each (approximately one serving). Score the fat on the lamb (don't cut all the way to the meat), then season on all sides with salt and pepper.
• On the cooker, heat the skillet to very hot, add olive oil. When it is hot, place the lamb in skillet and sear on all sides of meat to give it a nice dark colour (you will have to hold it in place to get all angles).
• Once browned, place the racks skin-side-down in the skillet, and into the oven for 12 minutes.
• Cut crusts off bread, place bread, herbs and parmesan into food processor and blitz until you have a very fine crumb (it will be green). Add the olive oil and continue blitzing for a few more seconds. It will still look like dry crumbs, but when you pinch it, it should stick together well. Pour onto a plate.
• When lamb has been in for 12 minutes, remove from oven and brush all sides with dijon mustard. Then press each rack into the crumb mixture, coating on all sides and pressing it to get an nice even coating.
• Place the racks (this time skin-side-up) in a baking dish. Sprinkle any leftover crumb mixture into the dish. Place back into the oven for another 8-10 minutes (longer if you want well-done), until crust is slightly browned.
