Rack Of Lamb Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together the lemon zest, rosemary, salt and sugar. Season the racks on all sides with this mixture, cover and put in the refrigerator overnight. This acts like a quick cure, which will add flavor to the lamb when it is cooked.
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Put a large saute pan over medium heat and add the oil. Put one of the seasoned racks in the pan fat-side down and sear until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the rack and sear the other side for a few minutes. Remove to a rimmed baking sheet fat-side up, and repeat the browning process with the other rack.
• Put the baking sheet with both racks on it in the oven and roast until the meat registers 120 degrees F to 125 degrees F in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into chops and serving.

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Brush both sides of chops with 2 tablespoons mustard, divided evenly. Arrange chops on rack. Place rack with chops on baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Using back of fork, add remaining 2 tablespoons mustard, lemon juice and thyme and stir until blended. Add breadcrumbs and stir until crumb mixture begins to dry and crisp, approximately 5 minutes. Season crumb mixture with salt and pepper.
• Remove chops from oven. Press half of crumb mixture firmly onto each chop. Bake until crumbs are brown and chops are cooked through and tender, approximately 20 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
• In a medium bowl, crumble the goat cheese with a fork. Add the panko, garlic, rosemary, thyme, 1 teaspoon fleur de sel, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil and stir to moisten the crumbs. Set aside for a few minutes or cover and refrigerate.
• Remove the racks of lamb from the refrigerator 30 minutes before you plan to cook them. Place the lamb, fat side up, on the prepared pan. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons fleur de sel and 1 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 12 minutes exactly. Remove from the oven and, working quickly, use a knife to spread the mustard on the top of the lamb. Spread the crumb mixture evenly on the mustard, pressing gently to help the mixture adhere. Return the lamb to the oven right away and continue roasting for another 12 to 18 minutes (depending on the size of the lamb), until the crumbs are golden brown and the meat is 120 degrees F for rare or 125 degrees F for medium rare. (Insert an instant-read thermometer horizontally through the meat.)
• Cover loosely with aluminum foil and allow the lamb to rest for 8 minutes. Cut the racks into single or double chops and serve hot.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process the salt, rosemary, and garlic until they're as finely minced as possible. Add the mustard and balsamic vinegar and process for 1 minute. Place the lamb in a roasting or sheet pan with the ribs curving down, and coat the tops with the mustard mixture. Allow to stand for 1 hour at room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Roast the lamb for exactly 20 minutes for rare or 25 minutes for medium-rare. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to sit for 15 minutes, then cut into individual ribs and serve.

Steps:

• Pull flaps off the racks of lamb and dice. Add the diced lamb to a saucepan and cook on low. Trim the bones, then add the trimmings to the pan. Add the sliced onion and garlic. Cook until the trimmings turn deep brown, then pour off the fat and add the Chardonnay.
• Reduce the liquid down to a glaze, then add 1/2 cup water. Cook for 1 hour, then strain and add 2 tablespoons butter.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place breadcrumbs on a cookie sheet and bake for about 10 minutes.
• Mix the arugula, basil, parsley and tarragon with the melted butter and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the racks of lamb thoroughly with the Espelette pepper and sea salt, then coat the racks with seasoned breadcrumb mixture.
• Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
• Place the racks of lamb in a large casserole dish. Roast for about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Let the lamb rest for about 20 minutes. Strain the pan drippings and whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Season with salt and pepper.
• Reheat the sauce and slice the racks. Gently sauce the lamb and serve with Arborio Rice Pilaf.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter to an oven-safe saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the rice. Simmer for about 5 minutes, then add the lamb jus, saffron and 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil.
• Transfer to the oven and bake for about 18 minutes. Remove and let rest 10 minutes.
• Stir in the chives and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Stand the racks of lamb in a china or glass baking dish, scatter the garlic and rosemary over the top, and drizzle with the olive oil. Leave to marinate for at least 4 hours (or overnight if you have the time), turning occasionally.
• Preheat the oven to fan 200C/ conventional 220C/gas 7. Season the lamb generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large, heavy frying pan over a moderately high heat and brown two of the racks well on the meaty sides for about 1-2 minutes, then turn and brown the other sides for a further 1 minute. Finally, brown the ends briefly so that all of the exposed meat is seared. Remove and repeat with the remaining two racks.
• Put racks in a large roasting tin, standing them in pairs with their bones interlinked. Roast for about 8 minutes for very pink meat, 17-20 minutes for medium and 25 minutes for well-done. To test the lamb stick a skewer or the point of a knife into the centre of the meat, leave it for 30 seconds and then test it against the inside of your wrist, it should feel hot. If it still feels cold then keep cooking the lamb as it will still be raw in the centre. Test again after 5 mins.
• Transfer the lamb to a warmed plate, cover loosely with foil, and allow to rest in a warm place for about 5 minutes before carving (if you have to wait longer than this, you may want to return the lamb to the oven for a minute or so before serving, to bring back up to temperature). Carve into cutlets and serve on warmed plates with a spoonful of the chickpea stew.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Carefully trim the rack of lamb, leaving the rib bones as long as possible. Leave about 1/4 inch of fat on the outside of the rack. Cut neat crisscrosses in the fat with a sharp knife.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients.
• Put the rack of lamb in a roasting pan and cook it in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the lamb and reduce heat to 375 degrees F.
• Pat the bread-crumb mixture on top of the rack and on the bony side to form a crust. Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes. The lamb should be served very pink.
• If you like it more well done, just make sure the crust isn't burning.

Steps:

• About an hour before roasting, remove lamb from refrigerator.
• Trim excess fat.
• Stir oil with seasonings and garlic.
• Spoon a third on fat side of each lamb rack. Evenly spread over fat and meaty ends and lightly over bone side.
• Place each rack as it is coated on a large baking sheet with shallow sides.
• Depending on pan size, bone ends may lay on pan edges.
• For even cooking, leave coated lamb at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Or lamb can be refrigerated, lightly covered, up to 1 day.
• Bring to room temperature before roasting.
• When ready to roast, preheat oven to 400F (200C).
• Then roast, uncovered, for 25 to 30 minutes for rare to medium-rare lamb. Internal temperature should be 140F (60C) to 150F (65C).
• Remove lamb to a cutting board. Cover with a tent of foil for 5 minutes before slicing into chops.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Move oven rack to the center position.
• In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, garlic, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss in 2 tablespoons olive oil to moisten mixture. Set aside.
• Season the rack all over with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy oven proof skillet over high heat. Sear rack of lamb for 1 to 2 minutes on all sides. Set aside for a few minutes. Brush rack of lamb with the mustard. Roll in the bread crumb mixture until evenly coated. Cover the ends of the bones with foil to prevent charring.
• Arrange the rack bone side down in the skillet. Roast the lamb in preheated oven for 12 to 18 minutes, depending on the degree of doneness you want. With a meat thermometer, take a reading in the center of the meat after 10 to 12 minutes and remove the meat, or let it cook longer, to your taste. Let it rest for 5 to 7 minutes, loosely covered, before carving between the ribs.

Steps:

• Sear rack of lamb all over in skillet that can be used in the oven.
• With food processor running, drop shallot and garlic into top tube and process until finely minced.
• Add parsley and process until finely chopped.
• Add pieces of fresh bread (about one slice) and process to fine crumbs.
• Remove from processor to a bowl and mix in melted butter.
• Pat bread crumb mixture onto top of rack of lamb.
• Roast at 450° for 15 to 20 minutes.
• If crumbs brown too quickly, turn oven down to 425°.
• Test with oven thermometer until done to your liking (My preference is to serve these medium with interior temperature to 160).

Steps:

• Rub dijon mustard on both sides of chops and roll chops in breadcrumbs.
• Then sprinkle rosemary on a paper plate and place chops in it.
• Stand in baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30 minutes.
• Serve with Mint Jelly.

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.
• Coat and roast lamb:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Stir together garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, and oil. Coat meaty parts of lamb with herb mixture, pressing to help adhere. Roast 15 minutes, then cover lamb loosely with foil and roast until thermometer inserted diagonally into center of meat registers 120°F, 5 to 10 minutes more. Let stand, covered, 10 minutes. (Internal temperature will rise to 125 to 130°F for medium-rare while lamb stands.)
• Cut each rack into 4 double chops.
