This sous vide rack of lamb recipe uses southwestern spices to bring a little heat and great depth of flavor that compliments the soft, supple texture that comes from cooking the lamb sous vide. The reason sous vide works so well for a rack of lamb is because it applies heat evenly through the whole rack, which means every bit of the lamb is perfectly done. You also get the best of both worlds by finishing it on the grill without having to worry about it flaring up every few minutes.
