Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1/4 cup minced garlic
- 1/4 cup finely chopped shallot
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup pomegranate juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 lamb racks
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Soy and Ginger Marinade:
- In a bowl, combine Worcestershire sauce, mirin, soy sauce, grated ginger, ketchup, minced garlic, chopped shallot, honey, pomegranate juice, lemon juice, and ground black pepper. Stir until well blended.
-
Marinate the Lamb:
- Wrap the chop bones of the lamb racks with aluminum foil to minimize exposure to the marinade and prevent the bones from darkening during grilling.
- Place the lamb racks in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag, and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the lamb racks are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
-
Preheat the Grill and Oven:
- Preheat your grill to high heat.
- Preheat the oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).
-
Grill the Lamb:
- Remove the lamb racks from the marinade, discarding any excess marinade.
- Over high heat, grill the lamb racks until they are nicely marked and golden brown in color, about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Finish Cooking in the Oven:
- Remove the aluminum foil covering the lamb bones.
- Transfer the grilled lamb racks to a baking sheet or grill-safe pan.
- Place them in the preheated oven and roast until they reach medium-rare doneness, about 15-20 minutes. Adjust the cooking time according to your desired level of doneness.
-
Serve:
- Once cooked to your liking, remove the lamb racks from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve the Soy/Ginger Sauce Rack of Lamb hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Tips:
- Marinade Flavor: The longer you marinate the lamb, the more pronounced the flavors will be. Consider marinating for up to 4 hours for deeper flavor infusion.
- Grilling: Ensure your grill is well preheated to achieve those beautiful grill marks on the lamb racks.
- Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Medium-rare lamb will register about 135ยฐF (57ยฐC) on the thermometer.
