Recipe:  

  1. Trim the fat off the rack (leave some for flavor).
  2. Coat the rack with the olive oil.  
  3. Add all spices & rub into the meat.  
  4. Sear the meat in a hot frying pan for 5 mins on each side. 
  5. Put it in a 425 degree oven for 20 minutes.  
  6. Take the rack out of the oven & coat it with the goat cheese & breadcrumbs. Put it back in the oven for 15 mins.
  7. Hint: If you want the meat to be less rare, leave it in for 30-40 mins before coating with the goat cheese.
  8. Enjoy!
