Rack of Lamb With Mustard and Herbs image

My daughter served this for a dinner party recently, and we all really liked it, so I asked her for the recipe. She said she got if from her one of her Williams-Sonoma cookbooks, though I don't know which one. But I think this recipe produces a wonderfully flavorful rack of lamb that we all enjoyed. I hope you do, too.

Time 55m

Yield 2 racks of lamb, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 racks of lamb (1 1/2 pounds, 8 chops each)
salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup fine breadcrumbs
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Season lamb with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sear lamb, one rack at a time. Using tongs, hold each rack upright; sear ends, about 20 seconds each. Rack should look golden. Transfer racks to 13x9-inch baking dish.
  • In a bowl, stir together bread crumbs, garlic, thyme, rosemary, butter, and a pinch of salt; mix well.
  • Brush seared lamb with a thin layer of mustard. Sprinkle bread crumbs over surface of lamb, pressing so it adheres well.
  • Roast lamb at 400° until a thermometer reads 120° (about 20 minutes for rare, 25 minutes for medium-rare).
  • Before slicing, let lamb rest on cutting board 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.

The lamb was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the mustard-herb crust was excellent. I'll try it again with a shorter cooking time.
