Roasted Spring Lamb
EASY & DELICIOUS
1 Leg of Lamb About 8-9 Pounds (Whole or Boned)*
3 Large cloves of Garlic*
5 Tablespoons Mixed Fresh Herbs (example: Rosemary, Parsley, Thyme, Oregano)
3 Tablespoons Olive Oil*
Salt & Pepper to Taste
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Slice the garlic cloves into four long
strips, and with a sharp knife, make 1-inch deep slits into the lamb spaced
evenly apart. Place a piece of garlic in each slit. Chop the herbs and mix
with the olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Rub the herb mixture over
the outer surface of the lamb. Place in a roaster pan, and cook for 30
minutes. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees, and cook an additional 2 to 2 1/2
hours, or between 20 to 30 minutes a pound depending on desired doneness.
Remove the lamb from the oven, and cover with aluminum foil and let sit
about 20 minutes before carving
