Rub this mixture onto the racks of lamb.
Heat a large cast iron skillet or cast iron grill pan over high heat.
Sear the rack of lamb for one minute on each side.
Place in the oven for 20 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 120°F.
While the lamb is roasting, prepare the mint chimichurri by adding all of the ingredients to a food processor and blending until smooth.
Once the lamb reaches 120°F, remove it from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
