Instant Pot Rack of Lamb

Step 1

Pat dry the rack of lamb. Mix together the seasonings in a bowl and use it to season the lamb.

Step 2

Press the sauté button on the Instant Pot. When hot, add the oil and the lamb, meat side down.

Step 3

Sauté until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pot and cancel sauté mode.

Step 4

Pour the water into the pot and deglaze to remove any browned bits.

Step 5

Set the lamb racks in the pot, standing up so the bones raise the meat out of the water. (If only cooking 1 rack, insert the trivet and set the rack on the trivet).

Step 6

Lock on the lid and set the vent to sealing. Press the Pressure Cook (or Manual) button and set the time to 1 minute on high heat.

Step 7

When done, allow it to do a 12-minute natural pressure release. Then release any remaining pressure. Transfer the lamb to a plate and tent it with foil. Let the lamb rest for 5-10 minutes.

Step 8

Cut the lamb into chops and serve with your favorite side dish.
