Categories Lamb Vegetable Roast Valentine's Day Honey Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

For sauce
3 tablespoons butter
2 1/2 cups chopped onions
1 cup chopped carrot
2 cups canned beef broth
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
1 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
For lamb
1/2 cup honey
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 1 1/4-pound trimmed racks of lamb

Steps:

Make red wine sauce:
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and carrot and sauté until deep brown, about 12 minutes. Add beef broth and next 4 ingredients; boil 10 minutes to blend flavors.
Mix flour and 1 tablespoon butter to paste in bowl. Whisk into sauce. Simmer until sauce thickens, whisking occasionally, about 10 minutes. Strain. Set aside.
Make lamb:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Whisk honey, soy sauce and mustard in small bowl to blend; add 2 tablespoons glaze to sauce. Sprinkle lamb with salt and pepper. Place on baking sheet. Brush each rack with some of remaining glaze. Roast until thermometer inserted into center of lamb registers 130°F, brushing often with more glaze, about 35 minutes.
Rewarm sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Cut lamb between bones into chops. Serve chops with sauce.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of lamb: A leg of lamb or a rack of lamb are both good choices for roasting. Look for meat that is a deep pink color with a fine grain.
Trim the lamb: Remove any excess fat from the lamb before cooking. This will help the meat to cook evenly and prevent it from becoming greasy.
Season the lamb generously: Rub the lamb with a mixture of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other spices, such as rosemary, thyme, or cumin.
Sear the lamb before roasting: Searing the lamb in a hot skillet will help to create a flavorful crust. This will also help to keep the meat juicy.
Roast the lamb at a high temperature: Roasting the lamb at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust. The internal temperature of the lamb should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
Let the lamb rest before carving: Let the lamb rest for at least 10 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Serve the lamb with a flavorful sauce: A honey-mint sauce or a red wine sauce are both good choices for serving with roast lamb.

Conclusion:

Honey-glazed roast lamb with honey-mint sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The lamb is roasted to perfection and the honey-mint sauce is the perfect complement to the lamb's rich flavor. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to celebrate a special occasion.
