How to Make Lamb Rib Roast Dijon

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Trim exterior fat on the lamb roast to 1/4 inch thickness.
  3. Spread 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard evenly over the entire surface of the roast.
  4. In a bowl, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, and 1 clove minced garlic.
  5. Pat the breadcrumb mixture firmly onto the Dijon mustard-coated roast.
  6. Place the roast, fat side up, on a rack in an open roasting pan.
  7. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, ensuring it's not touching bone or fat.
  8. Do not add water or cover the roast.
  9. Roast in the preheated oven to your desired doneness:
  10. For rare: 140°F (60°C) internal temperature (approximately 30-35 minutes per pound)
  11. For medium: 160°F (71°C) internal temperature (approximately 35-40 minutes per pound)
  12. For well-done: 170°F (77°C) internal temperature (approximately 40-45 minutes per pound).
  13. Remove the roast from the oven when the meat thermometer registers the desired temperature.
  14. Let the roast rest for at least 15 minutes before carving.
  15. Garnish with lemon slices and Italian parsley, if desired.
