Chef's Notes

Lamb is lean and can taste gamey if overcooked, so I do not recommend cooking your lamb over Medium Rare. Below you can find temperatures for lamb doneness:

Rare – 125 degrees F
Med Rare – 135 degrees F
Medium – 145 degrees F
Med Well – 155 degrees F
Well Done – 165 degrees F

Peter VS ★ 5.0/5

This was an excellent recipe just that way you wrote it. We wound up marinating it 48 hrs, but it was still amazing! Served with roast Greek potatoes and Greek green bean. Delicious. Thanks for taking the time to share.

Scott Berger ★ 5.0/5

Simple, great flavor. Grilled it on a pellet stove for some added smoke.

Marc Davies ★ 5.0/5

This recipe made for the BEST rack of lamb I've ever had!!! They were AMAZING! My wife and kids loved them. Due to time constraints I was only able to marinade them for 2 hours so I can only imagine how much better they'll be next time given 4 . I also made a cabernet sauce to accompany them and added 2 TBS of the marinade to it.
