Coat the Rack of Lamb with Thyme, Salt, and Pepper. Let set while prepping garlic. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Clean garlic. Zest and juice the lemon. Measure the wine.
Heat olive oil and ½ of the garlic in an oven safe sauté pan
Place rack of lamb in the sauté pan. Sear the lamb on all sides. Sear the lamb on all sides until browned
Pop the lamb in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until it reaches your preferred temperature.
Remove the lamb from the oven. Place on a plate and let it rest
Take the pan (be careful not to touch the handle, without a pot holder, like I did!!!) place it on the burner and start to heat the pan drippings. Remove any garlic that might be really brown (or burnt!). Add the rest of the garlic to the pan drippings
Add the wine, lemon juice, and zest to the pan drippings
When the sauce starts to boil. Mix together the cornstarch and 1 Tablespoon of Water. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the pan to thicken the sauce.
Pour the delicious wine and lemon mixture over the rack of lamb. Then, sprinkle some fresh cilantro or parsley on top to add a burst of flavor!
Cut the Lamb between the bones. We usually serve 2 lamb chops per person.
Serve with your favorite side dishes. We like serving it with risotto, mashed potatoes, or polenta.
