Pineapple Juice Marinade For Lamb Recipes

LAMB IN SPICY PINEAPPLE MARINADE

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, onion, chipotle and coriander and cumin seeds. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until reduced by 1/3, about 25 minutes. Remove from the heat; cool. Stir in the lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
• Place the leg of lamb in a very large zip-lock bag and pour in the marinade. Shake the bag to distribute the marinade. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Transfer the lamb to a roasting pan fitted with a rack and reserve the marinade for basting. Roast the lamb for 15 minutes, baste with some of the reserved marinade and lower the temperature to 350 degrees.
• Continue to roast, basting occasionally, for another hour and a half or until the lamb reaches the desired doneness. Remove and allow to rest, covered, for 15 minutes. Slice and serve.

LAMB WITH PINEAPPLE MINT SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Trim any excess fat on the lamb racks and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and put the racks in the hot pan, fat side up. Sear until browned, then flip and sear on the fat side until golden brown. Stand the racks up in the pan, criss-crossing the bones with the fatty side out. Put the pan in the oven to roast until the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and let the lamb rest on a cutting board for at least 5 minutes. Slice into single or double chops (2 rib bones).
• To make the sauce, finely chop the pineapple, reserving any juices that are released (it should resemble canned crushed pineapple). Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the pineapple and its juice, the mint bundle and water to the saucepan and simmer over low heat until the pineapple is broken down and the liquid has thickened, about 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the mint bundle and discard; stir the chopped mint into the sauce and transfer to a serving bowl.
• Serve the lamb chops on a platter topped with the pineapple mint sauce spooned over the top.
