RACK OF LAMB WITH MUSTARD AND HERBS

Steps:

• Season lamb with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sear lamb, one rack at a time. Using tongs, hold each rack upright; sear ends, about 20 seconds each. Rack should look golden. Transfer racks to 13x9-inch baking dish.
• In a bowl, stir together bread crumbs, garlic, thyme, rosemary, butter, and a pinch of salt; mix well.
• Brush seared lamb with a thin layer of mustard. Sprinkle bread crumbs over surface of lamb, pressing so it adheres well.
• Roast lamb at 400° until a thermometer reads 120° (about 20 minutes for rare, 25 minutes for medium-rare).
• Before slicing, let lamb rest on cutting board 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.

HERB-MARINATED RACK OF LAMB

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.

Steps:

• Marinate lamb: Mix marinade ingredients in a ziplock bag (Note 2). Place lamb in bag, massage to coat, then seal and marinate for at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours.
• Remove lamb from fridge 1 hour prior to cooking, to ensure even cooking.
• Wrap bones in foil (optional): Wrap each bone with a small piece of foil. This keeps the bones white and looks prettier.
• Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F (180°C fan).
• Sear: Heat 1 tbsp oil in a cast iron skillet (or other oven-proof, heavy-based skillet) over high heat. Sear one lamb rack on all sides until golden brown, including the ends. Remove and repeat with other lamb rack.
• Roast: Place both racks in the skillet and roast for 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature is 57°C/135°F (for medium-rare). Remove pan from oven.

HERB MARINATED GRILLED RACK OF LAMB

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.

GARLIC & HERB GRILLED LAMB CHOPS (VIDEO)

Steps:

• This recipe is great for scaling up for more servings! Increase the marinade ingredients for each additional rack. First, carefully portion the rack of lamb into single chops using a large, sharp knife. Turn the rack towards yourself to see the bones for easier portioning. Place the portioned chops into a casserole dish. Watch my video recipe to see how it's done.
• Drizzle a the olive oil over the lamb chops, then season generously with coarse salt and black pepper; I recommend using Maldon salt flakes or kosher salt. Season both sides of the lamb chops. Next, sprinkle the fresh herbs over the chops. Gently press the pressed garlic into the chops so it sticks better to the meat. Drizzle the vinegar and wine over the chops and turn them to ensure they are well coated. Marinate the chops for 30 minutes in the refrigerator, turning after 15 minutes to marinate the meat evenly.
• While the lamb chops are marinating, prepare your choice of dipping sauces and side dishes. Check out my recommendations above in my recipe post! Once the lamb is marinated, preheat an outdoor grill to 500F for 5 minutes, until the grill grates are extra hot. Reduce the flame to medium and add the lamb chops, spacing them 3 to 4 inches apart.
• Grill the chops for 2 to 3 minutes per side, more for thicker chops. Once both sides are grilled, transfer them to the top rack of the grill, or to the side. Finish cooking the lamb with indirect heat for another 2 to 3 minutes. These instructions are for medium-done chops. Grill for 1 minute less per side for medium-rare doneness. Ensure that the temperature reaches 145F. Remove the chops from the grill and let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• For the tzatziki sauce: gently peel the cucumber(s) and remove large seeds, if desired. Grate the cucumber(s) into a bowl lined with a cheesecloth; you'll need approximately 1 1/2 cups of grated cucumber. Season the cucumber lightly with salt and let it stand for 5 minutes to release water. Wring the cucumbers of excess water as much as possible. Place the grated cucumber into a large bowl with the greek yogurt, pressed garlic, chopped dill and mint. Add the olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. If desired, add also 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.

• Mix the bacon and croûtons in a bowl. Add the eggs and cream. Season with salt and pepper, add the parsley and pour into the moulds.
• Place the moulds in a deep-sided roasting tin and add boiling water to the tin until it comes half way up the side of the moulds.
