- Preheat to 400.
- Spread garlic on the fat side of the lamb, sprinkle all over with 1 tsp salt & pepper and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Combine honey, mustard, zest & rosemary and heat gently until honey loosens but isn’t completely runny. Reserve half the mixture in a separate bowl & set aside. Remove garlic from the lamb and brush on the remaining honey mixture.
- Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat until hot and add vegetable oil. Place 1 lamb rack fat side down and sear until brown, 1-2 minutes. Sear sides until brown. Place in a stovetop safe roasting pan and repeat with 2nd rack. Stand racks upright and interlace the bones to make a tent shape. Roast until medium rare, 125 degrees, or desired degree of doneness, 35-45 minutes.

- Remove lamb and let rest for 10-15 minutes. Discard fat in pan reserving 1 tbs. Place roasting pan over medium low heat, add wine to deglaze scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add butter 1 piece at a time, whisking after each addition to melt. Cook to reduce until slightly thickened. Add reserved marinade and warm through. Taste for seasoning.
