Dinner
Rack Of Lamb with Bigelow® Plantation
Mint Tea Sauce
Instructions: Method
for the racks of lamb:Preheat oven to 400ºF. Brush racks of lamb with oil and place them meat-side down in a heavy, low baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Turn the racks of lamb over, brush with mustard, and then apply the crumb mixture with a cupping motion. Drizzle the melted butter over the crumbs and return to the oven for another 10-12 minutes for medium-rare. Prepare the Bigelow Plantation Mint Tea Sauce while waiting for the lamb to cook. Remove the rack of lamb from the oven, let stand for 3-4 minutes, then slice chops. Serve a generous spoonful of sauce over each chop. Method for the sauce: In a small saucepan, bring beef stock to a boil. Turn off the heat. Add the teabags and steep for 10 minutes, making sure they are all submerged. Remove the teabags to a small strainer and using the back of a spoon, press as much liquid as possible back into the pan. Stir in the honey and return to a boil, stirring until the honey is incorporated. In a small custard cup, combine the flour and butter into a smooth paste, using a fork. Just before serving, bring the liquid to a boil. Turn off heat, add the butter/flour mixture, bit by bit, and whisk until it is incorporated and the sauce thickened. |
