Ingredients

  • 1 rack New Zealand or Australian rack of lamb
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • drizzle of olive oil

Instructions

  • Gather all ingredients before starting recipe.
  • Trim the cap off the rack.
  • The racks come 'Frenched' so just remove any remaining bits between the bones after removing the cap and season well with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add a drizzle of olive oil and allow to rest for an hour before cooking.
  • Heat a small oven proof frying pan over high heat for 1-2 minutes, then add the rack, skin side down. Sear for 3 minutes.
  • Turn the rack skin side up and sear for 3 minutes, and then place the pan in a 400°F oven for 10-12 minutes
  • Remove from oven and place rack on a cutting board and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  • Slice and serve.
