GORDON RAMSAY'S HERB CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB RECIPE - (4.7/5)

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.

RACK OF LAMB WITH GARLIC AND HERBS

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.

SESAME-CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB WITH WILTED GREENS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the pine nuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until light brown and fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool, then crush with the bottom of heavy-bottomed pan on a cutting board.
• Increase the oven to 450 degrees F. Cut the lamb into 4 pieces of 2 bones each. Sprinkle them generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add the lamb and brown all over, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet.
• Stir together the mustards, thyme and half the garlic in a small bowl. Place the sesame seeds on a rimmed plate. Using a pastry brush, spread a thin layer of the mustard mixture all over the lamb, then roll each piece in the sesame seeds to completely coat. Return to the baking sheet.
• Roast the lamb until the internal temperature reads 130 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer for medium-rare, 12 to 15 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
• Meanwhile, bring the wine to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Remove from the heat and add the raisins to let them rehydrate; set aside.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the remaining garlic and the anchovy if using and stir until the garlic is soft and the anchovy is mostly dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Add the escarole and toss to coat with tongs. Cook, tossing occasionally, until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes. Stir in the wine and raisins and continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until the escarole is tender but still crisp at the root end, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the escarole to a serving platter and top with the pine nuts. Serve with the lamb.
