DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Crush garlic cloves, using garlic press, into small bowl. Finely chop rosemary and red pepper (about 1/4 cup); add to garlic. Stir in bread crumbs and black pepper.
|
|
|
|
2:
Place racks of lamb, bone side down and ribs criss-crossed, on rack
in baking pan. Rub top of lamb with olive oil. Press bread crumb
mixture over olive oil. Roast 10 minutes to brown bones.
|
|
|
|
3:
Reduce heat to 375°F. Cover exposed bones with foil to prevent over-browning.
Roast 35-40 minutes or until internal temperature
reaches 145°F (for medium-rare). Remove from oven, cover with
foil and allow lamb to stand 10 minutes; temperature will rise
slightly. Slice between ribs and serve.
