Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Season the racks with Essence. Place the  
racks, bone side up on the grill and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the  
grill and cool. Smear each chop with Creole Mustard. In a mixing bowl,  
combine the pistachios and bread crumbs with the olive oil. Season the  
crumbs with Essence. Mix the crust thoroughly. Dredge each rack in the bread  
crumb mixture, coating each rack completely. Place the racks on a parchment  
lined baking sheet and place in the oven. Roast the chops for 12 to 15  
minutes for medium rare. In a large saute pan, over medium heat, melt the  
butter. Add the onions. Season with salt and cayenne. Cook for 3 minutes,  
stirring. Add the tomatoes, olives, garlic, green onions, and herbs, and  
black pepper, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil.  
Reduce the heat and continue to cook for 2 minutes.  
Remove the chops from the oven and rest for about 2 minutes before serving.  
To serve, mound the potatoes in the center of each plate. Spoon the sauce  
around the potatoes. Slice each rack into individual chops. Arrange three  
chops around each mound of potatoes. Garnish with green onions.
