How to Prepare a Delicious Leg of Lamb

If you are looking to impress your guests with a mouthwatering dish, consider preparing a succulent leg of lamb. This classic dish is sure to be a hit at any gathering. Follow these simple steps to create a delicious and memorable meal.

Ingredients:

  • 1 leg of lamb

  • 4 cloves of garlic

  • 1 onion, sliced in slivers

  • 1 tablespoon of rosemary

  • 1 tablespoon of thyme

  • About a 1/4 cup of olive oil

  • About a 1/4 cup of lemon juice

  • Seasoning salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Start by selecting a high-quality leg of lamb from your local butcher or grocery store. Make sure to choose a cut that is fresh and well-marbled for the best flavor and tenderness.


Next, prepare a marinade using a combination of olive oil, garlic, slivered onions, rosemary, thyme and lemon juice. Rub the marinade all over the lamb, making sure to coat it evenly. Let the lamb marinate for at least a few hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.


When you are ready to cook the lamb, place the lamb in a roasting pan and sprinkle seasoning salt and freshly ground black pepper on top. 


Transfer the pan to a 350-degree oven. Roast the leg of lamb until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For a medium-rare finish, cook the lamb to an internal temperature of 145-degrees.


Once the lamb is cooked to perfection, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Pair it with your favorite side dishes and enjoy a truly unforgettable meal.


By following these simple steps, you can create a delicious leg of lamb that is sure to impress even the most discerning palates. So why wait? Get cooking and treat yourself and your guests to a culinary delight they won't soon forget.
