GRILLED LAMB PORTERHOUSE WITH FIG-CASCABEL SAUCE
Steps:
- Heat grill to high or heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush chops on both sides with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the chops on the grill or grill pan and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn over the chops and continue grilling to medium doneness, about 2 to 3 minutes longer.
- Ladle some of the sauce into the center of each dinner plate. Place 2 chops per order in the center of the sauce and drizzle the edges of the meat with some more of the sauce. Garnish with parsley leaves.
- Place figs in a bowl, cover with boiling water and let sit until softened, approximately 30 minutes. Place the softened figs in a food processor with 1/2 cup of the soaking liquid and process until smooth.
- Combine the vinegar and port wine in a medium nonreactive saucepan and reduce by half over high heat. Add the sugar, orange juice, and fig puree and reduce by half again, stirring occasionally.
- Combine the chile puree and chicken stock in another saucepan and reduce by half over high heat. Add the reduced vinegar-fig mixture to the chicken stock mixture along with a touch of honey and reduce by half again, stirring occasionally. Strain the mixture into a clean medium saucepan and reduce to a sauce consistency.
GRILLED RACK OF LAMB WITH A PORT WINE FIG SAUCE
This was a recipe I got from a fellow chef at a food show many years ago. And I admit, it has evolved quite a bit over the years, but still has the same flavor. I love to use fresh figs and rosemary which to me are the key. Most Whole Foods or a gourmet market usually have fresh figs. You can use dried figs, but the fresh really take it over the top. Now I have a Sams Club by me, so anyone else who does ... check out their rack of lamb. I get 2 racks 9 each monthly for a very reasonable price, half the butcher or grocery store. This makes having a elegant dinner for friends very affordable.

Steps:
- Marinade -- Mix all the ingredients and rub over the lamb well. Put in 1 or 2 large baggies and seal and just let marinade over night. 24 hours plus is fine for this.
- Fig Sauce -- Take 1/2 of the fresh figs and cut them up in quarters. In a small sauce pan on medium heat add the olive oil and then add the shallots, garlic, rosemary and figs. Cook five minutes until the figs are soft. Add the port wine and chicken broth. Simmer until reduced by about half on low/medium heat. About 10 minutes, the sauce with thicken on it's own.
- Lamb -- I like to grill the lamb until nice and brown with good crusting on each side, about 5 minutes per side and then flip. Then I move to indirect heat to finish cooking. They don't take long. Another 5 minutes on the indirect heat and they should be done. Make sure you have a meat thermometer which is very important when cooking this. I like to remove my lamb at about 120 degrees and cover with foil. It will come up to 125 which is medium rare. You can remove it a bit earlier if you like it more rare. 125 seems to work perfect for me each time. Remove and cover with foil to let set 10-15 minutes before carving.
- Sauce -- Add the fresh figs to the reduced sauce to heat up, the butter and a dash of the balsamic vinegar.
- Serve and Enjoy -- I like to serve 2-3 chops per plate and I love to serve this over a mix of mashed parsnips and potatoes or even some roasted spuds. Then drizzle the fig sauce over the lamb and some on the potatoes.
- Fresh sauteed kale is wonderful with this or some roasted brussels sprouts with a walnut butter. (Walnut butter -- just fine grind walnuts and mix with butter, melt and serve over green beans roasted brussels sprouts, and grilled cabbage or cauliflower). Very easy and very flavorful.

Found this online at Good Housekeeping. It has a whole menu for Easter dinner. This is recipe#1. "Juanita McGrath, of Opa-Locka, FL, contributed this recipe. Juanita loves being inventive, and she often uses fruit in her cooking. This recipe is made with dried figs but when fresh figs are in season, Juanita picks them from the trees in her yard and uses them in the sauce."

GRILLED RACK OF LAMB
Wonderful moist and full of flavour. I found the perfect way to prepare a rack of lamb on the BBQ. Brining is the answer. This is for 1 rack of 8 ribs but you can simply add a second rack to the brine.

Steps:
- Make brine using the brining ingredients.
- Add lamb and make sure it is completely covered.
- Let sit at least 8 hours in th refrigerator or if using Food Saver marinate 2 hours.Meanwhile make a mixure of the second part of Rosemary, Thyme, garlic and oil.
- Remove the racks of lamb from the brine solution and pat dry with a tea towel. Smear with herb mixture.
- Brush grill with canola oil. Light the burners under the grill plate and allow them to get quite.hot. Place the racks of lamb on the hot barbecue grill and brown each side. Once the racks of lamb have been browned, slide the rack to the other side of the barbecue and adjust the flames so they are at a medium Low heat.
- Throw the rosemary sticks from the brine mixture onto one of the burners and close the barbecue lid. The idea is that the rosemary sticks will smoke and burn providing a smoky rosemary flavoured atmosphere and the racks of lamb will bake inside the oven cavity of the barbecue.
- Cook until temperature reaches 65° for medium rare, approx 20 minutes.
- Place on plate; cover with foil and towel and let sit 10 minutes.
- Very nice served with Knorr demi-glace sauce, mint jelly if that is your choice. Enjoy!
