Roasted Lamb Loin With Savory Berry Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Season lamb generously with salt and black pepper. Heat oil over medium-high heat in an oven-proof skillet. Sear lamb on all sides until well browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Turn off heat. Remove lamb to a platter.
• Mix together Dijon mustard, rosemary, cinnamon, and cumin in a small bowl. Spread a thin layer of the mustard mixture on each rack of lamb.
• Place chopped shallots and pinch of salt into the same skillet. Cook and stir over medium-heat until shallots begin to lose moisture and become browned and soft, about 5 minutes. Add blueberries and continue cooking for about 2 minutes. Stir in red wine, turn off heat, and stir mixture to deglaze the pan.
• Place the racks of lamb into the skillet and interlace the rib bones together to push the lamb racks close together, leaving a lamb bone "zipper" in the center. Place the lamb racks into the center of the skillet. Season with a pinch of black pepper.
• Place skillet in pre-heated oven and roast lamb until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for medium-rare, about 20 minutes.
• Remove lamb to a cutting board to rest about 5 minutes.
• Drizzle balsamic vinegar into the blueberry sauce; add a pinch of salt. Turn heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer to reduce sauce by half, about 4 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in butter. When butter is melted, check seasonings and add more salt if needed.
• Slice racks into pieces of 2 ribs each. Serve topped with a spoonful of the blueberry sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 deg. F. Place lamb on rack in roasting pan. Insert thermometer into thickest part of lamb without touching bone. Roast 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Reduce temperature to 325 deg. F.
• In small bowl, mix mustard and next 6 ingredients. Spread over top and sides of lamb. Roast 30 - 35 minutes per pound for rare, 40 - 45 minutes for medium or until thermometer reaches degree of desired doneness: 140 deg for rare, 160 deg for medium, 175 deg. for well-done. Let stand 20 minutes before carving. Remove bay leaves.
• To make sauce, add wine, beef broth and water to roasting pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh rosemary, if desired. Serve with sauce.

Steps:

• Boil water and add garlic cloves, cooking until very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse garlic under cold water for 30 seconds and set aside. Preheat oven to 450°F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine 6 cooked garlic cloves with olive oil. Mash together with a fork or whisk, adding thyme and salt and pepper to taste. Rub lamb with herb garlic mixture, coating completely and arrange loins on a baking sheet.
• Heat 2 TBSP olive oil in a large ovenproof sauté pan over high heat. Add the lamb loins and cook just until browned on each side, about three minutes. Place the sauté pan in the preheated oven and cook the meat until medium rare, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven; place lamb on cutting board and allow to rest.
• Warm the remaining TBSP olive oil in the sauté pan over high heat. Add the 10 remaining garlic cloves and sauté until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the wine and deglaze by stirring and scraping all sides of the sauté pan. Cook until the wine reduces by half. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and swirl in the butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cut the lamb loins into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Spoon the sauce evenly over the lamb. Scatter garlic around each plate.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the raspberries, blueberries, chopped onion, the diced celery, tomato, sugar, and vinegar; season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer for about 30 minutes until the sauce is thick. While the sauce cooks, season the lamb by rubbing it with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the thyme and marjoram sprigs, and allow them to perfume the oil for about 1 minute. Remove the herbs and add the lamb. Brown the lamb on all sides, turning it gently with tongs. (Avoid using a fork; the tines may puncture the meat, allowing the flavorful juice to leak out.) You want the lamb to remain pink inside. Spread the berry sauce on a large serving plate. Slice the lamb into 1-inch pieces and arrange them on top of the berry sauce. Serve immediately.
