RECIPE: Sunflower Seed Crusted Lamb Loin

Ingredients:

2 well-trimmed boneless lamb loins (3/4 lb each)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
1 C raw sunflower seeds (3 ½ oz), finely chopped
1 Tbl all-purpose flour
2 Tbl pure olive oil
Lavender balsamic vinaigrette

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Season the lamb with salt and pepper and brush lightly with the egg white.
On a dinner plate, toss the sunflower seeds with the flour. Roll the lamb loins in the seeds until evenly and thoroughly coated.
Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add the lamb and cook over moderately high heat, turning with a spatula, until the sunflower seed crust is browned all over, about 2 minutes.
Transfer the lamb to a baking sheet and roast for about 7 minutes (for medium rare).
Carve each loin into 12 slices. Arrange 3 lamb medallions on each of 8 warmed dinner plates. Drizzle some lavender balsamic vinaigrette around the lamb and serve at once.
