INGREDIENTS

  • Lamb

    • 🍖 2 racks of lamb, trimmed

  • Spices and Seasonings

    • 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
    • 🧂 Salt to taste
    • Ground black pepper to taste

  • Cooking Oil

    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • Nuts and Crumbs

    • 🥜 ⅔ cup chopped pistachio nuts
    • 🍞 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs

  • Cooking Butter and Oil

    • 🧈 1 tablespoon melted butter
    • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • Condiments

    • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

2

Generously season each rack of lamb with herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper.

3

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Place lamb into the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.

4

Stir pistachios, bread crumbs, melted butter, and olive oil together in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread mustard over the fatty side of lamb, then press pistachio mixture into mustard.

5

Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden and lamb is pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130°F (54°C) for medium doneness.

6

Transfer lamb to a plate and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
