HERB-MARINATED RACK OF LAMB
Rack of lamb is simple to prepare and quite elegant for a proper dinner party. Racks have become so popular and expensive in the U.S. that chefs have turned to overseas sources to supply their restaurants at a much cheaper price. There are many New Zealand producers selling lamb with no added hormones or antibiotics. Small organic and free range producers in the U.S. sell their animals whole, so you not only get two racks you get everything else, legs, shoulders, shanks, etc. as well. Lambs are very small, 35 to 40 pounds, so if you split a whole one with a friend it is easy to use up all of the cuts. The herb marinade for the rack really perfumes the meat if it is done a day or two ahead of time. The same marinade can be used for many other cuts as well. It is best to remove as many of the herbs and garlic before roasting as they will burn and create off flavors.

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.

GORDON RAMSAY'S HERB CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB RECIPE - (4.7/5)
Provided by xoxochef
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place lamb on cutting board fat side up. Lightly score the fat layer with a sharp knife. Next, generously sprinkle the lamb with salt and pepper. Mop up the excess seasoning with the rack of lamb, ensuring it's thoroughly coated. Heat some olive oil in an oven safe pan. Seal the lamb by holding each side in the oil long enough to develop color (careful not to burn your hands). Gordon Ramsay says, "it's simple mathematics, no color, equals no taste". Quite simple indeed! Make sure you brown that lamb. Transfer the pan with the lamb into the oven and bake for 7-8 minutes. Prepare the crust while the lamb is cooking. Preparing the Crust: Place all of the ingredients for the crust except the mustard into a blender and pulse several times until it looks nice and green. Make sure you don't over do it with the olive oil, just a splash. Pour the mixture into a deep dish (bowl or plate) and set aside. Putting it All Together: Remove the lamb from the oven and brush generously with mustard. Dip the lamb into the crust mixture coating it completely. Dip several times to ensure an even coating. Allow meat to rest for a bit. Place it back into the oven for 3-4 minutes when you're ready to serve. NOTES: Gordon serves the lamb with potatoes boulangère and courgettes provençal, but you can serve with anything you find fitting. Gordon Ramsay made this tasty looking rack of lamb on the first episode of the first season of The F Word. Like many of Gordon's recipes, the primary herb ingredients are rosemary, thyme and garlic. This is sure to be a scrumptious meal for fans of Chef Ramsay's cooking.

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.

HERB GRILLED RACK OF LAMB
Quick and easy yet elegant grilled main dish. Herb measurements are approximate, and any of the savory , or mint family of herbs may be used. If you use fresh herbs, you can't go wrong. The only sin is to not use enough. If fresh herbs aren't available, you may substitute dried herbs, but reduce the quantities to 2-3 tsp. each. Frenched Lamb racks are available in vac packs most everywhere. If not, ask your butcher to french them for you.

- Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. If using charcoal, let the coals burn until white, then push them to one side of the grill. Season the lamb with salt and pepper. Spread the meaty sides of the racks with the mustard and then press the parsley, rosemary and thyme onto the meat.
- Sear the racks of lamb over high heat, or directly over the coals, meaty side down, until they are nicely browned, about 6 minutes. Turn the racks so that they are leaning against each other with the bones pointing up and grill until the meaty sides are nicely browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Turn the racks bone side down and lower the heat to moderately low, or move the racks to the cooler side of the grill. Cover the grill and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the meat registers 130° for medium-rare meat, about 20 minutes. Transfer the racks of lamb to a carving board and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Using a sharp slicing knife, carve the racks of lamb into chops and serve with the Caramelized Onion Jam.
