Garlic Roasted Eye Of Loin Of Lamb Recipes

ROASTED LAMB LOIN WITH GARLIC AND THYME

Steps:

• Boil water and add garlic cloves, cooking until very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse garlic under cold water for 30 seconds and set aside. Preheat oven to 450°F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine 6 cooked garlic cloves with olive oil. Mash together with a fork or whisk, adding thyme and salt and pepper to taste. Rub lamb with herb garlic mixture, coating completely and arrange loins on a baking sheet.
• Heat 2 TBSP olive oil in a large ovenproof sauté pan over high heat. Add the lamb loins and cook just until browned on each side, about three minutes. Place the sauté pan in the preheated oven and cook the meat until medium rare, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven; place lamb on cutting board and allow to rest.
• Warm the remaining TBSP olive oil in the sauté pan over high heat. Add the 10 remaining garlic cloves and sauté until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the wine and deglaze by stirring and scraping all sides of the sauté pan. Cook until the wine reduces by half. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and swirl in the butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cut the lamb loins into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Spoon the sauce evenly over the lamb. Scatter garlic around each plate.

GARLIC ROASTED EYE OF LOIN OF LAMB

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Rub each eye of loin with oil. Rub in salt, pepper and thyme. Spread mashed garlic on loin and place it on broiler rack. Broil 3 or 4 inches from heat source for 5 minutes. Turn over meat and broil 5 minutes longer. Turn again and broil 3 to 5 minutes, until a meat thermometer registers 135 degrees in center of meat.
• Cool lamb on a serving plate. It may be prepared 2 or 3 hours in advance. Cut into slices 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick and serve, garnished with watercress. If meat is broiled just before serving, allow 20 minutes for juices to be reabsorbed before carving.

ROSEMARY AND GARLIC ROAST LEG OF LAMB

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Using your hands, rub the lamb all over with the lemon juice. Pat the garlic and rosemary evenly all over the surface of the meat. Season the meat with the salt and pepper and place the lamb in a roasting pan. Place the lamb in the oven and roast for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue to cook for about 1 hour longer for medium-rare, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers about 145 degrees F to 150 degrees F (be careful that the thermometer does not touch the bone.) Remove lamb from pan and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
• Position the roasting pan over your stove burners. Add mixed herbs and onions to pan, and stir to combine with pan drippings. Add chicken stock and wine to deglaze the pan, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to release any fond. Reduce over high heat until sauce consistency. Strain before serving, if desired. Slice lamb and serve with sauce drizzled over the top.

• Transfer lamb to a platter, and discard string; keep warm while you make the Pan Sauce. Slice lamb just before serving.
