Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350?.
- Trim the majority of the fat cap off the top of the lamb, then season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then sear the lamb until browned on all sides.
- In the meantime, combine breadcrumbs, lemon zest, mint, parsley, rosemary, salt, pepper, and olive oil in a small bowl, then mix until well combined.
- When the lamb is browned, remove it from the skillet and set on a roasting pan or baking sheet.
- Spread the Dijon mustard over the top of the lamb in an even coating, then press the breadcrumb mixture on top.
- Gently pat the breadcrumbs down so that they stick and form a crust. Let sit for about 10 minutes to help the breadcrumbs adhere.
- Roast on the top rack of the oven until the lamb reaches your desired internal temperature (130? is perfect for medium-rare).
- Remove from the oven and allow the lamb to rest for 10-15 minutes.
- Carefully slice into double chops and arrange on plates. Top with any remaining breadcrumbs.
