Lamb Rack Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Marinade

   In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest to create a fragrant marinade.

2. 2

   Marinate the Lamb

   Rub the prepared marinade all over the lamb rack, ensuring it is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight for better flavor.

3. 3

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the lamb.

4. 4

   Sear the Lamb

   In a large skillet over high heat, add a bit of olive oil and sear the lamb rack for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.

5. 5

   Roasting

   Place the seared lamb rack in a roasting pan. Pour red wine around the lamb, then transfer the pan to the preheated oven. Roast for 20-25 minutes for medium-rare, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C).

6. 6

   Rest the Meat

   Remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute for a tender result.

7. 7

   Serve

   Slice the lamb rack into individual chops and serve with your choice of sides.
