    Juicy and tender rack of lamb is an exquisite dish filled with incredible flavours of garlic and rosemary in each and every bite. I literally start salivating when I think about this.

    The surprising thing about garlic rosemary rack of lamb is that it is super easy to make. The whole thing comes together in under 30 minutes. Yes, that includes both prep and cook times! And it only requires a handful of ingredients, which you probably have laying around your kitchen anyways! Who said quick weeknight dinners are boring? Incredible dishes in a short time frame is possible!

    This dish is a go-to crowd-please all year long. I especially like to serve it during the holidays as a feature dish. It makes for an incredible masterpiece at Christmas dinner. With a recipe this easy, who wouldn't? Move over turkey, there is a new showstopper in town!

      Can I “sear” 3 hours before oven time to avoid smokey fumes?

      Would garlic and mint rack of lamb work. Do garlic and mint go together?
