Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Allow the roasts to sit out at room temperature for about 1 hour before starting.
  2. Sprinkle both racks with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add in one rack at a time and brown on each side (about 3 minutes per side).
  4. Place the two lamb racks on a rack in a broiler pan fat-side facing up.
  5. Bake at 424 degrees F or until a thermometer inserted into the thickest portion registers 145 degrees, this should take about 18 minutes (medium-rare).
  6. Remove from oven and tent the racks loosely with foil; allow to stand for 10 minutes or until a thermometer reads 150 degrees F (temperature will increase slightly after removing from oven).
  7. Using a large pastry brush coat each rack on meaty-side only with about 1-1/2 to 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard.
  8. Cover the mustard side with breadcrumbs (using about 1 cup for each rack) pressing with hands to adhear the crumbs to the mustard and meat.
  9. Return to oven (breadcrumb-side facing upwards) and bake for about 4-5 minutes longer or until breadcrumbs are browned.
  10. Place onto a serving platter.
  11. At the table slice into chops before serving (2 chops per person).
