Note

You can prepare the crumb coating up to 1 day in advance. Store it in an airtight container at room temperature.

For best results, use a meat thermometer to ensure the lamb is cooked to your preferred temperature: 125ðF for rare, 135ðF for medium-rare.

If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the ingredients by hand, though the texture may be slightly less uniform.

Finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt for added crunch and flavor.
