Herb-Crusted Rack of Lamb with Mint Sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any special occasion. This dish is made with a succulent rack of lamb that is coated in a flavorful herb crust and served with a refreshing mint sauce.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 rack of lamb (8 chops)
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh thyme
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey

To start, preheat your oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, parsley, thyme, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper. Rub the olive oil all over the rack of lamb, then press the herb mixture onto the lamb, making sure it is evenly coated.
Place the lamb in a roasting pan and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare. Remove the lamb from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing into chops.
While the lamb is resting, make the mint sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the chicken broth, mint leaves, white wine vinegar, and honey. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
To serve, arrange the lamb chops on a platter and drizzle the mint sauce over the top. Garnish with additional fresh herbs, if desired.
