Rack of Lamb with Mixed Herb Seasoning

Rack of lamb is the rib section of the lamb, extending from the shoulder to the loin. The majority of lamb is graded as choice or prime, so it is not difficult to find a good-quality rack. Lamb is available at most quality butcher houses or grocery stores. When selecting a rack of lamb, make sure that the backbone, or chine, has been removed. This will make slicing each lamb chop easier, prior to serving. If you’ve shied away from serving lamb to your picky eaters, give this recipe a spin; it is one of my family’s favorites. Keep in mind that my kids are just as picky eaters as yours. Rack of lamb is the best way to introduce children to the distinct deep flavor of lamb meat, the only downside being the relatively high price per pound. There is something about “lamb on a stick” that appeals to the young ones. In the end, though, it is the flavor of this recipe that will have the kids requesting second helpings.
