How to cook deliciously - Frenched Rack of Lamb

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Wrap garlic head in foil.

2. Stage

Roast garlic in the preheated oven until soft, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool enough to handle, 15 to 20 minutes. Slice in half; squeeze to remove the roasted garlic within.

3. Stage

Combine 1 tablespoon roasted garlic with bread crumbs, parsley, and thyme. Reserve remaining roasted garlic for another use.

4. Stage

Wrap the exposed bone sections of the rack individually in aluminum foil.

5. Stage

Set the rack, bone-side down, ribs facing away, on a sheet of plastic wrap and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brush meat with mustard to create a thin layer. Spread bread crumb mixture over and press the crumbs into it using the plastic wrap. Set the lamb on a roasting rack. Discard the plastic wrap.

6. Stage

Roast in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness, or to desired doneness, 25 to 35 minutes. Let the lamb sit for 20 minutes in a warm location; carve into 4 two-bone chops. Season with salt.
