Jackie Kennedy Onasis Roast Rack Of Lamb Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Season lamb generously with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard, garlic and anchovy (or pound together in a mortar for a smoother texture). Stir in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Smear lamb all over with marinade and set aside.
• Meanwhile, boil potatoes until the tip of a paring knife meets no resistance, 10 to 15 minutes depending on size. When potatoes are done, drain, transfer to a roasting pan large enough to hold them in a single layer, and set aside to cool.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. With palms or the back of a wooden spoon, crush potatoes gently to crack open and slightly flatten. Sprinkle with salt, drizzle with about 2 tablespoons olive oil, and turn to lightly coat.
• Lay lamb racks on top of potatoes, with bones curving downward. Scatter rosemary over meat and potatoes. Roast, uncovered, until a meat thermometer registers 125 degrees (for medium-rare), about 20 minutes. (Cook to 135 degrees for medium.)
• Remove lamb to a cutting board and let rest, tented with foil. Return potatoes to oven and leave to roast 10 to 15 minutes more, until nicely crisped.
• Use a large chef's knife to slice the racks by cutting between the bones. (One rack will yield 4 thick chops or 8 thin ones). Transfer chops and potatoes to a warm platter, sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Prepare lamb for roasting. Place any trimmed-off bones in the bottom of a roasting pan. Place the meat, fat-side up, on top of the bones. Season with salt, pepper and thyme.
• Place in hot oven and roast to desired doneness. Rack of lamb is usually roasted rare or medium. Test doneness with a meat thermometer or by the touch method as for steaks. Total time will be about 30 minutes.
• Remove the lamb from the roasting pan and hold in a warm place. Leave bones in the pan. Set the roasting pan over moderate heat to caramelize the juices and clarify the fat. Pour off the fat. Add the garlic to the pan and cook 1 minute.
• Deglaze the pan with the stock and reduce by half. Strain, degrease, and season, to taste. Cut the meat between the ribs into chops. Serve 2 chops per portion with 1 ounce of juice.

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.

• 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:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Bring the lamb racks to room temperature. Season with salt and pepper.
• In an ovenproof skillet sear the lamb over high heat until golden, about 5 minutes. Place the skillet directly in the oven on the middle rack and roast for 10 minutes.
• Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. and continue roasting for another 15 minutes. Allow the lamb to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Soak salsify in cold water until all ingredients are assembled.
• Divide olive oil between 2 bowls. Add Jerusalem artichokes and drained salsify to separate bowls and lightly coat with olive oil. Spread and separate on a large baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 25 minutes or until tender.
• Toss together in a bowl with the fresh thyme.
• Warm the white wine over low heat in a small stainless steel pan. Add the dried mushrooms and re-hydrate.
• In a large skillet melt the butter over medium high heat and saute the shiitake mushrooms, garlic, shallots and thyme. Continue cooking until the mushrooms are a golden color. Increase the heat to high and add the wine, re-hydrated mushrooms and heavy cream. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and let sauce infuse for at least 1 hour. Strain through a fine sieve and warm when ready to serve. Add the truffle oil and kosher salt to finish. *Cook's Note: Dried Mushrooms may be purchased in specialty food shops.

• Frenching is the technique of cutting meat away from the top of a rib or chop before cooking to expose part of the bone. Ask your butcher to trim and french the rack for you. If a butcher is unavailable, follow these steps for presentation-worthy chops: Remove the thick layer of fat from bone side of rack by pulling it away with your hands and using a thin sharp knife to cut through the end; discard. (Bits of lean meat within the fat layer can be frozen for soup.) Remove meat between the ribs to 1 to 2 inches of the eye of the meat by cutting down and up along the bones. Scrape remaining bits of meat from the bone.

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:

• To Make Garlic Confit:.
• Separate garlic into cloves. Slice root end off each clove but do not peel.

• Heat butter in skillet on low heat, add garlic cloves, cover and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until garlic is golden (about 10 minutes). Reserve garlic and skillet for sauce.
• To Pepare the Lamb Racks:.
• Cut away last 2 inches of fat and meat from bones. Trim remaining fat; cut racks in half.
• In a small bowl, combine Dijon mustard, rosemary, thyme, parsley, breadcrumbs, oil, salt and pepper. Pat over lamb racks.
• Preheat oven to 400 deg. F.
• Place lamb on a rack over roasting pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until juices are slightly pink. Let rest for 10 minutes before carving.
• To Make Sauce:.
• In the reserved skillet, add red wine, vinegar and sugar. Reduce until glazed (about 3 minutes). Add stock and butter and boil until slightly thickened. Scatter in garlic confit and parsley.
• To Serve:.
• Slice lamb down into chops, spoon on a little sauce and garnish with garlic confit.
• Serve with roasted potatoes and vegetables.
• Open your bottle(s) of wine, pour liberally, and enjoy!

Steps:
