Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat the 1 rack of lamb dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over high heat. Sear the lamb fat-side down until deeply browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and sear 2 minutes more.
Step 3
Brush the lamb with 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, then press 0.5 cup panko mixed with 2 tbsp chopped herbs onto the top.
Step 4
Transfer skillet to oven and roast until internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare, about 12-15 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes.
Step 5
Toss 2 cups mixed greens with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Slice lamb between bones and serve over greens, garnished with berries if desired.
