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 lemon, Measure 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 until browned
Place the lamb in the oven for 30 minutes
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. Take a spoon full of the wine/pan drippings and mix into the corn starch. Pour back into the pan to thicken the sauce. We added some Large Peppers but not necessary. Only add peppers if you like extra spice.
Pour the wine, lemon mixture over the rack of lamb
Sprinkled the Cilantro or Parsley on the rack of lamb
Cut the ribs into serving sizes. Cut between the bones
Serve with your favorite side dishes. We like serving it with risotto, mashed potatoes, or polenta.
