RACK OF LAMB IN AN ORANGE AND CAMPARI SAUCE

Ask the butcher to French trim the lamb for you as it can be quite fiddly to do it yourself. It is difficult to judge whether a rack of lamb has been cooked to the preferred doneness. Take it out of the oven when you think that it is nearly ready and cut into it to check how much longer it needs. Cooking times can also vary, depending on the thickness of the fat on the lamb. Campari may seem like an odd thing to put in a sauce, but it offsets the sweetness of the orange well. If you really can't stand Campari, you can substitute Port, Brandy or Armangnac.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Lamb Recipes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 racks of lamb (8 ribs each), frenched
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds fingerling potatoes
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 large shallot, minced
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest, plus 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season lamb with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Sear lamb on both sides until deeply golden, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer racks to a rimmed baking sheet, fat side up. Toss potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange potatoes around lamb.
  • Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the lamb reaches 130 degrees (medium-rare), 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer racks to a cutting board. Return potatoes to oven. Roast until tender, about 15 minutes more.
  • Combine remaining 1/2 cup oil, the parsley, shallot, vinegar, oregano, garlic, orange zest and juice, red-pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spoon some sauce over lamb. Carve lamb into individual chops, slicing between ribs. Serve with potatoes and remaining sauce.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful lamb, oranges, and Campari.
  • Don't overcook the lamb. Lamb is best when it is cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooking will make it tough and dry.
  • Let the lamb rest before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Serve the lamb with a variety of sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This rack of lamb recipe is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The orange and Campari sauce is a unique and flavorful twist on a classic dish. With a little planning and effort, you can easily create this restaurant-quality meal at home.
