Ingredients:

• 2 racks of lamb (about 1 1/2 pounds each), frenched
• 2 teaspoons paprika powder
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
• Salt to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a small bowl, mix together the paprika powder, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt.
3. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the racks of lamb, covering all sides.
4. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Once the skillet is hot, add the racks of lamb, fat side down, and sear for 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
6. Flip the racks of lamb and sear the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the lamb for 15-20 minutes for medium-rare or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C).
8. If you prefer your lamb cooked differently, adjust the cooking time accordingly (about 20-25 minutes for medium or 25-30 minutes for well done).
9. Once the lamb reaches your desired doneness, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
10. Slice the racks of lamb between the bones into individual chops.
11. Serve the rack of lamb chops hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
