Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Place meat in roasting pan and sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl, adding olive oil or butter if the mixture seems dry. Press the mixture onto the meat.

Roast the racks 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 375°F. Roast another 20 to 35 minutes, depending on degree of doneness desired (a meat thermometer should register between 120 to 150°F) Let the meat rest 15 minutes before carving.
