Number Of Ingredients 8

1 full rack of lamb (about 1 1/4 pounds), frenched
2 teaspoons olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup fine fresh breadcrumbs
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees with rack in center. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Rub lamb with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in skillet, and sear until golden brown all over (including ends), about 3 minutes per side. Place on a baking sheet. Let stand until cool, about 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs, rosemary, garlic, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Brush lamb with 2 tablespoons Dijon, making sure the entire surface is covered. Pat seasoned breadcrumbs over rack (reserve any remaining breadcrumbs for another use), covering Dijon in an even layer. Return to baking sheet, and roast until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 130 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before carving into individual chops.

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 40m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 baby rack of lamb, about 7 chops
1 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper, to taste
rosemary (optional)

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.

Lamb rack is one of those things that always seems fancy, but the truth is that it's actually so easy, and hard to mess up. This version is super simple and classic. The timing in the recipe yields pink, juicy, medium-rare meat, but you can of course cook it longer/to a higher temperature if preferred. Perfect for your Easter lunch, or as an impressive part of any special occasion meal.

1 cup panko bread crumbs

RACK OF LAMB WITH A HERB CRUST



Rack of lamb with a herb crust image

The rack is one of the most expensive cuts of lamb, but the meat is so tender and delicious it's worth splashing out once in a while. This looks really impressive, and it's not difficult to cook. Racks are usually sold French-trimmed, which means that the fat is neatly trimmed off the bones, making the dish look pleasingly cheffy. The meat is best served pink under its crunchy, herby crust.

Provided by The Hairy Bikers

Categories     Main course

Yield Serves 4-5

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 racks of lamb, French trimmed, fat scored
40g/1½oz fresh white breadcrumbs
3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
flaked sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Heat a large, heavy-based frying pan and brown the meat, fat-side down, for 5 minutes. Brown the remaining sides, then transfer the racks to a roasting tin, facing each other, with the bones interlocking.
  • Mix the breadcrumbs with the herbs and garlic, and stir in a pinch of salt and some black pepper. Brush the fat side of each rack with the mustard and cover with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing it carefully so it sticks.
  • Roast the lamb for 25-30 minutes for medium-rare meat. Remove from the oven, cover loosely with foil and leave to rest for 8-10 minutes. Carve each rack into individual cutlets and serve with a red wine gravy.
