Ingredients
- 3 (1 1/2-pound) French-cut racks of lamb (8 ribs each)
- Cooking spray
- 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced (48 slices)
- 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Preparation
- 1. Place lamb, meat side down, on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Cut a 1-inch-deep slit between each rib on the underside of each rack; stuff 2 garlic slices into each slit. Turn lamb, meat side up; coat with cooking spray. Sprinkle with pepper and rosemary, pressing gently to adhere. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 8 hours or overnight.
- 2. Preheat oven to 450°.
- 3. Sprinkle lamb evenly with salt. Bake at 450° for 20 minutes or until a thermometer registers 145° (medium-rare) to 160° (medium). Cover with foil; let stand 10 minutes before slicing each rack into 8 pieces.
