Ingredients

  • 2 racks lamb rack
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
  • 4 cloves, minced garlic
  • 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Pat the lamb racks dry with paper towels and season them with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 3

In a bowl, mix together the chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, and minced garlic.

Step 4

Add the Dijon mustard to the herb mixture and stir well to combine.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 6

Brush each lamb rack with the olive oil to ensure the herb crust adheres well.

Step 7

Generously spread the mustard and herb mixture over the entire surface of the lamb.

Step 8

Carefully coat the mustard-covered lamb racks with the almond flour and Parmesan mixture, pressing it on to adhere.

Step 9

Place the lamb racks on the prepared baking sheet, bone-side down.

Step 10

Insert the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.

Step 11

Once done, remove the lamb from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 12

Carve between the ribs to separate the chops and serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
