Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

For lamb
2 (8-rib) frenched racks of lamb (each rack 1 1/2 lb), trimmed of all but a thin layer of fat
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
For herb coating
1/2 head new garlic or 3 large regular garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Special Equipment

Steps:

  • Brown lamb:
  • Heat a dry 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until hot, at least 2 minutes. Meanwhile, pat lamb dry and rub meat all over with salt and pepper. Add oil to hot skillet, then brown racks, in 2 batches if necessary, on all sides (not ends), about 10 minutes per batch.
  • Transfer racks to a small (13- by 9-inch) roasting pan.

3 teaspoons dried dill weed
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon pepper

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.

ROAST LEG OF LAMB WITH GARLIC AND HERBS



Roast Leg of Lamb with Garlic and Herbs image

Make this Roast Leg of Lamb with Garlic and Herbs for a flavorful main no matter the time of year.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Lamb Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bone-in leg of lamb (6 to 8 pounds), rinsed and patted dry
2 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for pan
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
4 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano leaves
4 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary needles
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Use a paring knife to make a dozen small slits in the meat. Tuck garlic slivers into slits. Place meat in a baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, stir together oil, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pour marinade over lamb, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate, basting occasionally with the marinade, for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees with rack positioned to fit the lamb in a roasting pan. Remove lamb from refrigerator, uncover, and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat a roasting pan with oil.
  • Transfer lamb to a rack fitted in the prepared pan, reserving leftover marinade. Season meat with salt and pepper. Roast lamb, basting every 20 to 30 minutes, first with the reserved marinade, and then with juices that accumulate in the pan. The lamb will need to cook for about 20 minutes per pound (2 hours for a 6-pound leg of lamb; 2 hours and 40 minutes for 8 pounds). An instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat, not touching the bone, should read 145 degrees when the lamb is medium-rare.
  • Remove pan from oven and transfer lamb to a cutting board. Cover to keep warm; let rest for 20 minutes before carving. Pour pan juices into a fat separator or glass measuring cup; spoon off any fat that rises to the surface and discard. Cover juices to keep warm while lamb rests; add any juices that collect as the lamb sits.
  • Carve lamb, and arrange slices on a large warm platter; drizzle with reserved pan juices just before serving.

GARLIC AND HERB LAMB



Garlic and Herb Lamb image

A quick and easy rosemary rub that truly draws out the succulent flavor of lamb. Works on chops or leg of lamb.

Provided by DICIA

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Lamb

Time 2h5m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (5 pound) leg of lamb
3 cloves garlic, cut into slivers
3 teaspoons dried dill weed
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Puncture the leg of lamb with the tip of a knife just far enough to insert slivers of garlic into the holes. Mix together the dill, salt and rosemary, and rub over the leg of lamb. Place the lamb, fatty side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
  • Roast uncovered for 2 to 2 1/2 hours in the preheated oven, to an internal temperature of 155 degrees F (68 degrees C) for medium. Tent with aluminum foil and let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before carving. The lamb will continue to cook a little bit, and the juices will set up better for carving.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb: Look for lamb that is a deep pink color with white fat. It should also be firm to the touch.
  • Season the lamb generously: Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the lamb, such as garlic, rosemary, thyme, and salt and pepper.
  • Cook the lamb to the desired doneness: Lamb can be cooked to rare, medium, or well done. The best way to determine the doneness of the lamb is to use a meat thermometer. Rare lamb should have an internal temperature of 125 degrees Fahrenheit, medium lamb should have an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit, and well-done lamb should have an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the lamb rest before carving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the lamb, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Serve the lamb with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for lamb include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and a green salad.

Conclusion:

Rack of lamb is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. By following these tips, you can cook a rack of lamb that is perfectly cooked and full of flavor. So next time you're looking for a special meal to make, give rack of lamb a try!
