Check out that Rack (of Lamb)
Wanna see a nice rack? Check out Robert's Steakhouse, located at New York's Scores New York. The kitchen was kind enough to share with us their mouth watering recipe for rack of lamb, crusted in a Moroccan inspired dry rub before being finished to a perfect medium rare. Doesn't get much steamier than this...
Moroccan Spiced Lamb
1 Frenched rack of lamb, cut into double chops
1 Tbsp cumin seeds
1 Tbsp allspice
1 Tbsp cardamom pods
1 Tbsp coriander seed
1 stick cinnamon
1 Tbsp fresh mint, chopped
Zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp fresh garlic chopped
Fresh ground pepper
Touch of olive oil
Toast cumin, all spice, cardamom and cinnamon in a pan over medium-low heat until fragrant. Remove and add to a spice grinder or mortar and pestle and grind into a fine powder. In a separate bowl, mix garlic, mint and lemon zest and set aside.
Rub lamb chops sparingly with oil then coat liberally with spice mixture and apply garlic, mint and zest mixture. Finish with cracked pepper and salt. Allow meat to marinade in spices at least 30 minutes before grilling.
Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high and grill chops approximately 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
