We’re going to marinate a boneless leg of lamb with garlic and fresh herbs which is going to adds tons of flavor and really complement the mild taste of the lamb. Lamb has really gotten a bad rap as being a very gamy tasting meat. It’s not. The meat is very mild tasting, and after being perfectly roasted we will serve it with a mint salsa verde. Today we are are adding mint along with a little lemon, which compliments the lamb so beautifully.

Nothing says a holiday party like a good punch! This one will be your go-to party starter, because it’s not too sugary and pairs beautifully with the menu. If you prefer, you could use champagne, but I use a really good sparkling wine. Slightly sweet and effervescent, the festive bubbles and rich, red pomegranate get you right into the holiday spirit!

It is difficult to describe the delectable, tasty dining experience of a tender, perfectly roasted rack of lamb. Today’s lamb is not the gamey meat of the 1970’s, but clean and fresh. Don’t believe me? Ask my thirteen year old son, who ate five chops!  (OK, I can’t tell you the real number but it was more).  A rack of lamb with the toasted rub on the outside makes a beautiful presentation.  And the sauce? A twist on the traditional chimichurri sauce, accented with mint. Pleasantly pungent, bright, and delicious with any meat, I know that you will enjoy this preparation of rack of lamb!
