Rosemary-Garlic Lamb Racks Serves 4 / Prep time: 10 minutes, plus 1 hour marinating time / Cook time: 25 minutes Lamb is not one of the most popular meat choices in North America, but it is consumed in many other countries as a staple food.  Spring lamb is the best choice when considering this product, although you can find lamb both fresh and frozen year-round in most grocery stores.  If you are using frozen lamb, make sure it is completely thawed before adding the racks to the marinade. INGREDIENTS :- 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary 2 teaspoons minced garlic Pinch sea salt 2 (1-pound) racks French-cut lamb chops (8 bones each) RECIPE :- 1.

Lamb Leg with Sun-dried Tomato Pesto

Image
Lamb Leg with Sun-dried Tomato Pesto Serves 8 / Prep time: 15 minutes / Cook time: 70 minutes Sun-dried tomatoes, especially those packed in seasoned olive oil, provide an intense burst of flavor and are perfect for pesto and sauces.  The drying process removes the tomatoes’ water content while retaining and amplifying most of the nutrients and sweet taste of this popular fruit.  Sun-dried tomatoes are an excellent source of iron, vitamin K, and protein. INGREDIENTS :- FOR THE PESTO 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained ¼ cup pine nuts 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil 2 teaspoons minced garlic FOR THE LAMB LEG 1 (2-pound) lamb leg Sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil RECIPE :- TO MAKE THE PESTO 1.

Bacon-Wrapped Beef Tenderloin

Image
Bacon-Wrapped Beef Tenderloin Serves 4 / Prep time: 10 minutes / Cook time: 15 minutes This is a throwback to a popular ’80s dish, when many things were wrapped in bacon despite the moratorium on fats.  Bacon-wrapped steaks were found on every restaurant menu because the salty richness of the bacon combined beautifully with the lean tenderloin.  If you are looking for higher omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E in your beef, source-out organic grass-fed animals.

Lamb Chops with Kalamata Tapenade

Image
Lamb Chops with Kalamata Tapenade Serves 4 / Prep time: 15 minutes / Cook time: 25 minutes Lamb racks seem like the epitome of fine dining, perfectly cooked and cut into chops that are arranged in patterns with elegant bones pointing to the ceiling.  Frenching the racks—removing the meat from the upper bones cleanly—is not difficult but can certainly be time consuming if you have never done it before.  If you get the racks from your local butcher, you can always ask them to do the work for you to save valuable kitchen time. INGREDIENTS :- FOR THE TAPENADE 1 cup pitted Kalamata olives 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 teaspoons minced garlic 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice FOR THE LAMB CHOPS 2 (1-pound) racks French-cut lamb chops (8 bones each) Sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon olive oil RECIPE :- TO MAKE THE TAPENADE 1.
