Dinner 45 Mins.

Ingredients

5

5 servings

  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 0.25 cup Italian parsley leaves
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
  • 0.75 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 0.5 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 (1 pound) frenched racks of lamb, at room temperature, trimmed of excess fat
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Gather ingredients.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
  • Combine bread crumbs, parsley, 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, mint, rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and lemon zest in the bowl of a food processor. Process until well combined, about 45 seconds. Transfer to a shallow dish and set aside.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high. Pat lamb dry with paper towels. Season with black pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Add lamb to skillet and cook until browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes total.
  • Brush the lamb with mustard, then dip and roll into prepared bread crumb mixture to coat, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Place lamb on the prepared rack, meat side up, with the bones pointed towards the middle of the rack.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer registers 125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for medium-rare, about 20 minutes, or to desired degree of doneness. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing in between the bones. Serve immediately.
