Directions
- 1
Place the rack in an oven-safe dish and drizzle generously with olive oil.
- 2
Season both sides with salt, pepper, minced garlic and lemon juice. Rub the marinade into the meat well to ensure full flavour.
- 3
Let the rack marinate for about 30 minutes — or overnight in the fridge for a deeper, more intense flavour.
- 4
Preheat the oven to 240 °C (465 °F). Roast for 40 minutes, basting the meat halfway through with the pan juices.
💡 Chef's Tip
For an extra crispy crust, switch to the grill setting for the last 5 minutes. Always rest the meat for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.
