HERB MARINATED GRILLED RACK OF LAMB



Herb Marinated Grilled Rack of Lamb image

Herb Marinated Grilled Rack of Lamb is a finger licking delicious recipe marinated with garlic, za'atar and Moroccan spice mixture and grilled to perfection.

Provided by HWC Magazine

Categories     Mains

Time 4h23m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1.25 pounds rack of lamb
2 tbsp za'atar spice mix ((see notes below))
2 tbsp garlic (peeled and minced or about 4 cloves)
2 tbsp parsley (fresh chopped or dried)
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper

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-MARINATED RACK OF LAMB



Herb-Marinated Rack of Lamb image

Rack of lamb is simple to prepare and quite elegant for a proper dinner party. Racks have become so popular and expensive in the U.S. that chefs have turned to overseas sources to supply their restaurants at a much cheaper price. There are many New Zealand producers selling lamb with no added hormones or antibiotics. Small organic and free range producers in the U.S. sell their animals whole, so you not only get two racks you get everything else, legs, shoulders, shanks, etc. as well. Lambs are very small, 35 to 40 pounds, so if you split a whole one with a friend it is easy to use up all of the cuts. The herb marinade for the rack really perfumes the meat if it is done a day or two ahead of time. The same marinade can be used for many other cuts as well. It is best to remove as many of the herbs and garlic before roasting as they will burn and create off flavors.

Categories     main-dish

Time 13h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lamb racks (about 8 to 9 ribs each)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus 2 tablespoons
4 garlic cloves, unpeeled and crushed
2 (4-inch) rosemary sprigs, crushed
6 thyme sprigs, crushed
4 rosemary sprigs, for garnish
Freshly ground black pepper
Sea salt

Steps:

  • Clean the rib bones well by scraping off meat and sinew with a small sharp knife. Cut the racks in 1/2 so that each has four ribs. Mix together the olive oil, crushed garlic, crushed rosemary and thyme sprigs in a large bowl. Add the lamb and coat well. Grind some coarse black pepper over all. Wrap well and marinate the racks overnight.
  • The next day remove the lamb from the marinade and scrape off as many herbs as possible. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the lamb well with salt; no additional pepper should be necessary, and sear fat side down until golden, about 7 minutes. Turn over so that the fat side is up and roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Let the rack rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
  • To serve, cut each lamb rack into 4 equal pieces, 2 bones per chop and serve on individual plates or a platter with the accompaniments of your choice.

TANGY HERB-CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB



Tangy Herb-Crusted Rack of Lamb image

DH and I found this to be an easy, tasty way to prepare rack of lamb. It is from Williams-Sonoma Kitchen. Prep time includes marinating time. I believe DH and I had to cook longer than 15 mins for medium-rare. We skipped the lemon wedges as it was just the two of us and we weren't concerned about presentation.

GRILLED LEG OF LAMB WITH GARLIC AND HERB LEMON MARINADE



Grilled Leg of Lamb With Garlic and Herb Lemon Marinade image

This is really the only recipe I use when I grill a leg of lamb. Plan ahead, the lamb needs to marinate 24 hours or overnight. This marinade can also be used for lamb chops. A butterflied leg of lamb is with the bones removed and cut to spread open, you can ask your butcher to remove the bones and butterfly it for you. If you prefer a more lemony taste then thinly slice half of another lemon, leave the peel on, and just throw the slices inside the bag or bowl with along with the other marinade. If desired you can also stuff the lamb with garlic cloves as well as adding the minced garlic in with the marinade. Grilling time depends on size of lamb. This recipe produces an excellent grilled lamb that melts in your mouth, try to not overcook the lamb, for best results leave slightly pink in the middle.

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time P1D

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 leg of lamb (bone in) or 1 butterflied leg of lamb
4 -5 fresh minced garlic cloves (or to taste)
3/4 cup olive oil
1 cup red wine
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried parsley
5 -6 green onions, chopped (optional)
salt and pepper
1 large lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • Mix all marinade ingredients together in a glass bowl.
  • Place the lamb in a extra large heavy-duty plastic bag or glass bowl.
  • Pour the marinade over the lamb, and turn to coat well on all sides.

  • When ready to grill, remove from fridge and save marinade for basting if desired.
  • Turn the grill to high heat.
  • Sear both sides for about 5 minutes on each side.
  • Reduce grill temperature to medium heat and finish cooking the lamb.
  • You may baste the lamb with the leftover marinade if desired.

Tips:

  • To ensure the lamb is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, cook to 135°F (57°C); for medium, cook to 145°F (63°C); and for well-done, cook to 155°F (68°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the lamb by cutting into the thickest part of the rack. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare, and slightly brown for medium.
  • Let the lamb rest for 10 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
  • Serve the lamb with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
