Roast Peppered Rack Of Lamb Recipes

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:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
• Season lamb with salt and pepper. Brush lamb with Dijon mustard, to coat. Dredge in breadcrumbs. Place on a rack into the oven for 20 minutes. Remove and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice and serve.

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:

• 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:

• Coarsely grind the black pepper in a minichopper. Add the garlic, salt, and olive oil, and puree.
• Rub the lamb, front and back, with the black-pepper paste. Let sit at room temperature for at least 45 minutes.
• Heat oven to 500 degrees.
• In a heavy saute pan slightly bigger than the rack of lamb, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until smoking. Saute the lamb, back side of the ribs facing up, until almost blackened. Turn gently, being careful not to break the pepper paste, and saute on back side for 30 seconds. Put the pan in the oven, and roast for 8 (rare) to 12 (medium well) minutes. When done, remove from the pan and let rest in a warm place for at least 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the lamb liberally with the salt and pepper on both sides. Pour a thin layer of vegetable oil into a large skillet and place over high heat until the oil begins to smoke, 1 to 2 minutes. Working in batches, place the racks into the skillet. Sear for 1 minute per side, remove and put on a baking sheet. Put the lamb into the oven and roast until medium rare, about 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Using a sharp knife, cut each rack in half. Serve immediately, half a rack per person.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 deg. F. Heat pan on medium-high heat and add oil.
• Pat the rack of lamb dry.
• Coat lamb on all sides with salt & pepper.
• Add lamb to pan fat-side down. Cook for 2 minutes.
• You may need to lower the heat and that's okay. We're just searing it for now. Turn lamb and cook 2 minutes. For 10 minutes rotate the rack every 2 minutes.
• Place the rack in a foil-lined roasting pan. Place in the oven and cook for 15 minutes.
• Place foil loosely over the rack and cook for 15 minutes.
• Remove the lamb from the oven and seal the loose foil around the roasting pan. Let rest for 10 minutes. This should yield a medium-rare chop. Slice between the ribs and serve.

Steps:

• Finely chop 2 medium shallots. Melt 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped shallots and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add Madeira and green peppercorns. Boil uncovered until mixture is reduced to cup, about 12 minutes. Remove sauce from heat.
• Arrange trimmed racks of lamb on rimmed baking sheet. Cut remaining 4 medium shallots in half and push through garlic press. Coat lamb with pressed shallots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover sauce and lamb separately and refrigerate.)
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Roast lamb 25 minutes. Increase heat to 500°F and continue to roast until lamb browns and meat thermometer inserted into center of lamb registers 130°F, about 5 minutes longer. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Bring peppercorn sauce to simmer. Whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cut lamb between ribs into chops. Arrange lamb chops on plates. Spoon peppercorn sauce around lamb and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Spread the salt over the bottom of a medium-size roasting pan. Rub some of the salt over both sides of the rack of lamb. Season both sides with pepper.
• Roast until the lamb is cooked medium-rare, about 35 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Finely chop 2 medium shallots. Melt 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped shallots and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add Madeira and green peppercorns. Boil uncovered until mixture is reduced to 2/3 cup, about 12 minutes. Remove sauce from heat.
• Arrange trimmed racks of lamb on rimmed baking sheet. Cut remaining 4 medium shallots in half and push through garlic press. Coat lamb with pressed shallots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover sauce and lamb separately and refrigerate.).
• Preheat oven to 400°F Roast lamb 25 minutes. Increase heat to 500°F and continue to roast until lamb browns and meat thermometer inserted into center of lamb registers 130°F, about 5 minutes longer. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Bring peppercorn sauce to simmer. Whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cut lamb between ribs into chops. Arrange lamb chops on plates. Spoon peppercorn sauce around lamb and serve immediately.
• Variation:.
• This sauce would also work with thick pork chops (with bones); make sure they reach an internal temperature of 150ºF for food safety.
• Do-Ahead:.
• Note that the sauce and lamb can be prepared eight hours ahead. The lamb needs to roast for just 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a roasting pan with very hot olive oil, sear the lamb, fat side down first, until golden.
• Remove and allow to rest 5 minutes.
• Brush the mustard onto both sides of the seared lamb.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Mix all of the herbs together.
• Dredge both sides of the lamb in the herbs, pressing lightly so that the herbs adhere.
• In the same roasting pan the lamb was cooked in, add the 10 cloves of garlic and place the lamb on top.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cook in the oven 15 to 20 minutes or until medium-rare.
• When cooked remove the lamb from the roasting pan and wrap in aluminum foil to rest.
• Place the roasting pan on top of the stove over medium heat.
• Remove the garlic and set aside.
• Discard all the fat.
• Add the white wine and the stock and reduce by half.
• Place the roasted garlic in a blender or food processor.
• Add the reduced stock and wine mixture and puree until smooth.
• Add the tablespoon of butter and pulse to incorporate.
• Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper.
• For a nice presentation, on a serving plate, stand the rack of lamb upright in a circle and secure with a skewer.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Strip most of the surface fat from the lamb. (Your butcher may already have done this.) Cut between the ribs, almost down to the meaty eye. Divide each rack in half down the middle, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in a roasting pan.
• Roast for 15 minutes, then insert a meat thermometer straight in from one end into the meatiest part. If it reads 125 degrees or more, remove the lamb immediately. If it reads 120 degrees or less, put the lamb back for about 5 minutes, no more. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes; this will give you medium- to medium-rare lamb on the outer ribs, medium rare-to-rare in the center. Cook a little longer for more doneness. Serve, separating the ribs, if desired, by cutting down straight through them.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a roasting pan.
• Rub lamb with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place meat-side up in the prepared roasting pan.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 to 160 degrees F (63 to 71 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Cover loosely with foil.
• Add 1 cup water to the roasting pan and stir to loosen any pan drippings; strain with a fine sieve to remove liquid and set the pan drippings aside.
• Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat; add onion and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in cornstarch until blended. Gradually add wine, broth, pan drippings, figs, remaining salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle lamb with walnuts and serve with warm fig sauce.

• Then spread the bread crumb mixture over the garlic mixture.
• Drizzle with the melted butter and return the lamb to the oven.
• Continue to roast until the crumbs are lightly golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a rack, away from the bone, registers 130F degrees 135°F for medium-rare, or the meat is pink when cut into with a sharp knife, about 25 minutes more.
• Remove from the oven, cover with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Preheat a broiler.
• Uncover and place the roasting pan under the broiler 5-6 inches from the heat source.
• Broil the lamb racks until the crumbs are deep golden brown, 30-60 seconds .
