Tender and Delicious Jerk Lamb
Tender and Delicious Jerk Lamb prepared with a wonderful blend of spices and roasted to perfection. Serve with roasted potatoes and salad.
A Lamb dish is found on my dinner menu plan at least twice or three times a month. I enjoy the taste of lean meat that is well spiced. Over the years, I have created tons of lamb recipes. Each recipe tastes differently depending on the seasoning and the cut of the lamb. I also rarely make the same dish in a month.
Make the right seasoning choice
Choosing the right spices and herbs is as crucial as selecting the right vinegar. I always make sure I have a jar of wet jerk seasoning, or I make my own dried jerk seasoning spice. Jerk seasoning is a valuable spice to have in your pantry or refrigerator.
If you don’t have jerk seasoning, you can use Noubess Hot and Spicy Sauces. The dish will be hot and spicy as if you had to use regular jerk seasoning. But the woody and smokey flavor from the jerk seasoning won’t be present.
It is very versatile and reminds me a lot of my mixed herbs and spices blends. To me, these spices are a must because you never know when you are pressed for a time especially when you realize that you ran out of your seasoning blend.
I create several herbs, and spices blends, and Noubess Hot and Spicy Sauces are perfect to spice up any meat or poultry dishes. I usually substitute it for the jerk seasoning and add lots of hot peppers. Having homemade seasonings or marinades for your meals can help you save on preparation and time. The only thing left to do is to concentrate more on side dishes which somehow I find challenging because I have difficulties making up my mind when it comes to what type of meat to cook.
A side dish of roasted, fried, or grilled meat is always an issue for me because I prefer having steamed or oven-roasted veggies. Having two sides is not uncommon. I also tend to forget about portions of pasta and grains dishes as they may take longer to prepare.
Advanced preparation is important
The marinade for the meat can be prepared ahead of time. You can also marinate the lamb in advance for lots of bold flavors. The marinade consists of store-bought seasoning, garlic, salt, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper, and lime or lemon juice.
Very simple, very easy! Try Jerk Lamb either roasted in the oven or grilled. I follow the same process, and it is always delicious. You may pre-cook the meat before grilling if preferred, but I find it to be very flavorful when cooked straight in the oven or grilled. This recipe is also ideal for lamb kebabs.
