RACK OF LAMB - CHRISTMAS EVE DINNER AT HOME

RACK OF LAMB

CHRISTMAS EVE DINNER AT HOME

If you follow this blog you know that we rarely dine out on Holidays unless we are traveling.  When at home, we like to experience restaurant quality meals at a fraction of the price while still wearing our shorts and t-shirts. This meal for three was less than $25 total.   For Christmas Eve I cooked a delicious Rack of Lamb that was easy to prepare and done in around 30 minutes. I coat the Rack with a mixture of Grey Poupon Mustard, Horseradish, Thyme, Garlic and Rosemary before putting it in the oven at 450 degrees for around 20 minutes or to an internal temperature of 130 degrees for medium rare.  Served with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Honey Glazed Carrots.
