Lamb Loins - Grilled with Hoisin Sauce

"Boneless loins are sold with the silver skin removed. If you happen to have some with this skin on, merely trim off with a sharp knife before marinating. To grill only 4 loins for fewer people, reduce the marinade ingredients by half. Hoisin sauce and rice vinegar are available in most supermarkets, or speciality shops. Prep. time includes marinating time in refrigerator. Calculate less time if marinating at room temperature. Cook-time includes stand-time. Serve with grilled vegetables and a plain salad with balsamic vinegar and extra-virgin olive oil dressing. Makes a welcome barbeque supper."

directions

  • Place lamb in sturdy plastic bag.
  • Combine hoisin sauce, honey, vinegar, oil, curry powder, garlic and hot pepper flakes.
  • Pour over loins, close bag and squeeze gently to coat.
  • Marinate 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Let lamb come to room temperature 30 minutes before grilling.
  • Reserving marinade, remove lamb and place on oiled grill 4 inches (10 cm) above medium-hot coals or medium-high setting on gas grill.
  • Grill about 3 to 5 minutes per side, brushing with reserved marinade, turning only once.
  • Do not overcook lamb; to test for doneness, press meat lightly with fingers.
  • Protect your fingers with paper towels.
  • If softly springy, it is rare; if very firm, it is well done.
  • Allow to stand for 10 minutes, lightly covered with tent of foil.
  • Cut in thin slices on diagonal.

  1. it was as great as it sounds!
     
  2. Delicious and easy. Savoury/spicy/slightly sweet - we've never done lamb in this way before but it was delicious and we will do this again. I think this marinade would also be really delicious with chicken and pork. Thanks Toolie.

<p>Gone, but not Forgotten. Where is she? someone asked. Not far was the loud response. Certainly not hiding in a large roasting pan, although I do have one about the size of a hog. <br /> <br />If I don't do this now, I never will, and if I never will, who will tell me if I am any good at the literature game? I am taking some time off to concentrate on writing a book...and you people have been distracting me. Oh yeah, sez you... What kinda book? Well, one with about 200 pages, give or take a dozen or so... maybe 300 who knows? Everyone knows Toolie has a lot to say at the best of times. <br /> <br />A DIY book??? Naaahhh, I'll leave that to the real mechanics at Canadian Tire and Home Depot. <br /> <br />A Recipe Book? Yeah, Right!!!! Like I would compete with this site or any other... Not in this lifetime... I have a tough enough time competing with some of you chefs, so I just don't, and won't. <br /> <br />Oh sure, I will cook some of your recipes, for special occasions. Pictures? Who knows? but don't hold your breath. Posting in the forums? Perhaps, but not on a regular basis... Posting recipes??? from time to time.... <br /> <br />Why hang around, you say? Because I wanna keep my terrific handle. There is only one TOOLBELT DIVA folks... Dat Be Me! <br /> <br />Remember, be careful what you say, you might find yourself in the second paragraph of page 150, or thereabouts. <br /> <br />In October, 2007 my youngest sister, Marie lost her battle with ALS. In her memory, therefore, I post the following: <br /> <br />SISTERS <br /> <br />Time passes. Life happens. Distance separates. Jobs come and go. Love waxes and wanes. Hearts break. Parents die. Careers end. Life happens ... <br /> <br />BUT...... Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you. <br /> <br />When you have to walk beside one dear to you in that lonesome valley, the women in your life will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on, praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf. <br /> <br />They will walk beside you, share your sorrow and share your tears, knowing all the while God is there with you, to give you the strength and faith you need and the everlasting blessings of healing love. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE HAPPEN IN THE WORLD (M. Gandhi) <br /> <br />IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO BECOME WHAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE (Georges Eliot) <br /> <br />THAT WHICH WE PERSIST IN DOING BECOMES EASIER, NOT THAT THE TASK ITSELF HAS BECOME EASIER, BUT THAT OUR ABILITY TO PERFORM IT HAS IMPROVED. (Ralph Waldo Emerson) <br /> <br />Have fun everyone! Remember, look out for the guy in back of the guy in front of you!!!</p>
