HERB-MARINATED RACK OF LAMB
Rack of lamb is simple to prepare and quite elegant for a proper dinner party. Racks have become so popular and expensive in the U.S. that chefs have turned to overseas sources to supply their restaurants at a much cheaper price. There are many New Zealand producers selling lamb with no added hormones or antibiotics. Small organic and free range producers in the U.S. sell their animals whole, so you not only get two racks you get everything else, legs, shoulders, shanks, etc. as well. Lambs are very small, 35 to 40 pounds, so if you split a whole one with a friend it is easy to use up all of the cuts. The herb marinade for the rack really perfumes the meat if it is done a day or two ahead of time. The same marinade can be used for many other cuts as well. It is best to remove as many of the herbs and garlic before roasting as they will burn and create off flavors.

Steps:
- Clean the rib bones well by scraping off meat and sinew with a small sharp knife. Cut the racks in 1/2 so that each has four ribs. Mix together the olive oil, crushed garlic, crushed rosemary and thyme sprigs in a large bowl. Add the lamb and coat well. Grind some coarse black pepper over all. Wrap well and marinate the racks overnight.
- The next day remove the lamb from the marinade and scrape off as many herbs as possible. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the lamb well with salt; no additional pepper should be necessary, and sear fat side down until golden, about 7 minutes. Turn over so that the fat side is up and roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Let the rack rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
- To serve, cut each lamb rack into 4 equal pieces, 2 bones per chop and serve on individual plates or a platter with the accompaniments of your choice.

Steps:
- Combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the lamb, making sure it is covered with marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, covered, overnight or for up to 3 days.
- Bring the lamb to room temperature. Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Scrape the marinade off the lamb, wipe the meat with paper towels, and season it generously with salt and pepper. Brush the grill with oil to keep the lamb from sticking, and grill on both sides until the internal temperature is 120 to 125 degrees for rare. This will take 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how hot the grill is.
- Remove the lamb to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 20 minutes. Then slice and serve.

HERB GRILLED RACK OF LAMB
Quick and easy yet elegant grilled main dish. Herb measurements are approximate, and any of the savory , or mint family of herbs may be used. If you use fresh herbs, you can't go wrong. The only sin is to not use enough. If fresh herbs aren't available, you may substitute dried herbs, but reduce the quantities to 2-3 tsp. each. Frenched Lamb racks are available in vac packs most everywhere. If not, ask your butcher to french them for you.

- Make sure that the rack of lamb bones has been "Frenched cut".(This is to remove the excess fat and fascia away from the bone to give abetter appearance for serving) Remove any excess fat.
- In a large sealable baggie or bowl add the rack of lamb, za’atar seasoning, chopped garlic, parsley and olive oil. Mix well and rub the mix into the rack of lamb. (Do not add the salt until you are ready to put it on the grill as this can draw out the moisture in the meat and make it tougher)
- Marinate rack of lamb for 4 hours or up to overnight. In a pinch can marinate for 30 minutes, while the lamb is coming to room temperature before grilling. Remove the marinating rack of lamb from the refrigerator and place it at room temperature for 30 minutes. (This keeps the meat cooking evenly)Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Clean and prepare the grill. Oil your grill grates lightly with a cloth. We did not wrap the ribs of the lamb in aluminum foil to prevent burning and we had no issues. If you want to do this, go for it. Salt and pepper your lamb rack well on both sides.
- GRILLING DIRECTIONS: Place your rack of lamb skin side down for 5 minutes over direct heat, allow to sear with the lid of the grill down. Turn the rack of lamb over on the other side and cook for the remaining time. For us, that was another 8 minutes. Make sure you take your rack of lamb off the grill about 2to 5 degrees BEFORE it comes to your desired temperature as it will raise another 5 degrees upon resting. However, it depends on how you want lamb cooked. We highly suggest not cooking your lamb any more than medium rare at the most for the best flavor and texture. Blue Bloody Rare – 125 degrees F (51 degrees C) Med Rare – 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) (our preferred cooking level)Medium – 145 degrees F (62 degrees C) Med Well – 155 degrees F (68 degrees C) Well Done – 165 degrees F (73 degrees C)
