1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

A tender, delicious, and addictive recipe for a grilled rack of lamb. The mustard crust adds a savory flavor that is unbeatable. Pairs well with my recipe for roasted potatoes with feta and basil and a glass of red wine.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Lamb

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup grainy mustard
1 medium lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon dried oregano
3 cloves garlic, grated
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (8 bone) rack of lamb, exterior fat trimmed

Steps:

  • Mix olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
  • Place the whole rack of lamb into a large zip-top bag and pour mustard mixture all over it. Massage the sauce into the meat until fully coated. Place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or up to 6 hours.
  • Clean an outdoor grill and preheat for high heat. Lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove lamb from the refrigerator and discard marinade. Wrap exposed bones in a layer of aluminum foil to prevent them from burning and flaking.
  • Place lamb on the preheated grill over direct heat. Sear the surface briefly, just until a dark brown crust starts to form, about 3 minutes; be careful it doesn't burn. Flip and sear the other side.
  • Move onto indirect heat and close the grill. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 120 degrees F (58 degrees C) for medium rare, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Transfer lamb to a serving dish and cover with foil for 5 minutes. Remove all foil and cut into chops to serve.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 ounces creamy goat cheese, such as Montrachet
1 1/4 cups panko (Japanese bread flakes)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves
Fleur de sel or sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Good olive oil
2 racks of lamb (1 1/2 pounds each), trimmed and frenched (see Cook's Notes)
3 tablespoons good Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
  • In a medium bowl, crumble the goat cheese with a fork. Add the panko, garlic, rosemary, thyme, 1 teaspoon fleur de sel and 1 teaspoon pepper. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil and stir to moisten the crumbs. Set aside for a few minutes or cover and refrigerate.
  • Remove the racks of lamb from the refrigerator 30 minutes before you plan to cook them. Place the lamb, fat-side up, on the prepared pan. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons fleur de sel and 1 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 12 minutes exactly. Remove from the oven and, working quickly, use a knife to spread the mustard on the top of the lamb. Spread the crumb mixture evenly on the mustard, pressing gently to help the mixture adhere. Return the lamb to the oven right away and continue roasting for another 12 to 18 minutes (depending on the size of the lamb), until the crumbs are golden brown and the meat is 120 degrees F for rare or 125 degrees F for medium rare. (Insert an instant-read thermometer horizontally through the meat.)
  • Cover loosely with aluminum foil and allow the lamb to rest for 8 minutes. Cut the racks into single or double chops and serve hot.

Rack of Lamb With Mustard and Herbs image

My daughter served this for a dinner party recently, and we all really liked it, so I asked her for the recipe. She said she got if from her one of her Williams-Sonoma cookbooks, though I don't know which one. But I think this recipe produces a wonderfully flavorful rack of lamb that we all enjoyed. I hope you do, too.
