Roasted Rack Of Lamb With Spring Succotash And Wilted Spinach Recipes

ROASTED RACK OF LAMB

Steps:

• An hour before you start roasting the lamb, line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray it with olive oil spray.
• Place the rack of lamb on the prepared baking sheet, fat side up. Score the fat by making small shallow slits, 1 inch apart.
• Liberally spray both sides of the lamb with olive oil and sprinkle it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, and thyme. Allow the meat to rest on the counter for about an hour and come to room temperature.
• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
• Roast the meat in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part (and not touching the bone) reads 135 degrees F (medium-rare), about 25 minutes.
• Remove the lamb from the oven. Transfer it to a cutting board. Cover with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
• To cut the rack into individual ribs, turn it upside down, locate where the bones are, and carefully cut between them using a sharp chef's knife. Serve immediately.

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:

• 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:

• 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.

• Let lamb rest at room temperature 1 hour, covered with plastic wrap. Place parsley, breadcrumbs, mint leaves, lemon zest, garlic, olive oil, and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary; set aside.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Trim all but 1/4 inch fat from lamb, then pat dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium-high heat until hot, then add enough oil to just coat the bottom of the pan and heat until shimmering. Place lamb in pan fat side down, and sear until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove lamb from pan and let cool 10 minutes. Pour off excess fat from pan.
• Use an offset spatula to spread yogurt evenly over browned (fat) side only, then top with breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently with your fingertips to adhere. Return to pan, coated side up. Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 125 degrees (for medium-rare) when inserted through the eye (or midpoint of one side) of the rack, 18 to 24 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes to allow temperature to rise and juices to redistribute.
• Slice rack between bones and serve, with mint jelly if desired, and garnished with mint sprigs.

ROASTED RACK OF LAMB WITH SPRING SUCCOTASH AND WILTED SPINACH

Steps:

• Prep potatoes:
• Bring medium saucepan water to boil. Reduce heat to moderate, add potato chunks and simmer, uncovered, until tender but not falling apart, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain potatoes and let cool to room temperature.
• Marinate lamb:
• In large sealable plastic bag, combine olive oil, garlic, parsley, and thyme. Add racks of lamb and seal bag, pressing out air. Turn bag to coat lamb, then transfer to shallow baking pan and refrigerate, turning bag over occasionally, at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Thirty minutes before roasting, remove lamb from refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature.
• Remove lamb from marinade, discarding marinade. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and transfer to rack set in large roasting pan. Roast until thermometer inserted 2 inches into thickest part of lamb (do not touch bone) registers 130°F (for medium rare), approximately 25 minutes. Transfer to carving board, tent with foil, and let stand 10 minutes.
• While lamb is roasting, make succotash and spinach:
• In medium skillet over moderately high heat, heat canola oil until hot but not smoking. Add potatoes and sauté just until starting to brown, about 8 minutes. Add corn and celery and sauté until aromatic, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and parsley and sauté 1 minute. Add black-eyed peas and wine and bring to simmer, then reduce heat to moderate and continue simmering, uncovered, until liquid is reduced by half and mixture is slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add broth, raise heat to moderately high, and bring to boil. Reduce heat to moderate and simmer, uncovered, until liquid is reduced by half and mixture is slightly thickened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter, 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Keep warm.
• In large, wide skillet over moderate heat, heat olive oil until hot but not smoking. Add spinach all at once and sauté, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, about 4 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl, sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, and toss to coat. Keep warm.
• Plate and serve:
• Divide succotash evenly between 8 bowls and top each portion with small mound of spinach. Carve lamb into chops and place 4 chops on each serving. Serve immediately.

ROAST PEPPERED RACK OF LAMB

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.

RACK OF LAMB WITH SAGE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees. Season the racks generously with salt and pepper. Place a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. When very hot, add the oil and sear one of the lamb racks all over until it is very brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a roasting pan fitted with a wire rack, laying it rounded-side (the side with the fat) up. Repeat with the remaining rack of lamb. Cover with foil and set aside.
• Place the remaining ingredients except for the balsamic vinegar in the bowl of a food processor. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and process until it forms a paste. Press the paste onto the rounded side of the racks. Roast until desired doneness, about 15 for medium rare. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, covered, before carving and serving drizzled with balsamic vinegar.

ROASTED RACK OF LAMB

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475F.
• Combine seasonings in a small bowl and sprinkle over the meat
• Heat a large heavy skillet over high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Brown lamb on both sides for 3 minutes each side. Pour off fat from pan, but save any juices to make pan sauce later.
• Transfer lamb to roasting pan and roast, fat side up, in the middle of the oven for 13-15 minutes until the internal temperature is 130-135F for medium-rare. Remove racks to a warm platter and let rest for 10 minutes while you make the sauce.
• Set the original skillet back on a burner. Add stock and scrape up any browned pieces from the bottom of the pan. Reduce to about 1 tablespoon. Add vinegar and remove pan from heat and whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and mint to form vinaigrette. Cut the racks into individual chops and serve, topped with the sauce atop salad greens.

CRISP-ROASTED RACK OF LAMB

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.
