If your rack of lamb is particularly thick, increase the cooking time slightly. Serve with roasted or fried potatoes and a green vegetable.

Ingredients

1-1/2 lbs  (750 g)  rack of lamb
2/3 cups  (150 mL)  beef stock
1/3 cup  (75 mL)  dry white wine
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  Dijon mustard
1 tbsp  (15 mL)  minced fresh tarragon or parsley
Vegetable oil, salt, pepper and cold butter

Preparation

Make diagonal slashes on fatty side of lamb almost but not all the way through the fat. Rub with 2 tsp (10 mL) oil and sprinkle with ¼ tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper.

In large ovenproof skillet, sear lamb, fat side down, over medium-high heat until golden, about 3 minutes. Turn and roast, uncovered, in 425°F (220°C) oven until meat thermometer inserted in centre registers 140°F (60°C) for rare, about 15 minutes, or until desired doneness. Transfer lamb to cutting board; tent with foil and let stand for 10 minutes before carving. 

Meanwhile, in small saucepan, bring stock, wine and garlic to boil; boil for 4 minutes. Whisk in mustard. Remove from heat; stir in 1 tbsp (15 mL) cold butter until melted and sauce is slightly thickened. Whisk in tarragon. Serve with lamb.
