Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 racks rack of lamb
- 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 4 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the rack of lamb on a cutting board and season all over with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Brush this mixture evenly over the entire surface of the lamb rack.
In a food processor, combine gluten-free breadcrumbs, rosemary, thyme, parsley, garlic, and the remaining olive oil. Process until all components are finely chopped and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Firmly press the herb breadcrumb mixture onto the mustard-coated lamb, ensuring an even layer forms over the top and sides.
Place the herb-coated lamb on a roasting tray with the bones curving downward.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, depending on your desired doneness (120°F for rare, 130°F for medium-rare on a meat thermometer).
Remove the lamb from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve slices of the lamb rack with your choice of sides and enjoy the aromatic, savory flavors.
