ROAST BONELESS LEG OF LAMB
Ingredients for lamb
1 five pound boneless leg of lamb
12 cloves of garlic - divided - half made into paste and half cut into chunks
4 tablespoons rosemary - chopped
1/2 cup parsley - chopped
5 teaspoons kosher salt - basically 1 teaspoon kosher salt per pound of meat
1.5 teaspoons black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
OPTIONAL MINT SALSA VERDE (blend until smooth)
1.5 cups parsley
3/4 cup mint leaves
1 cup olive oil
½ cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Trim the leg of lamb interior of any large excess fate pieces. Spread the lamb out onto a large cutting board to season.
2. Season the lamb's interior with half of the kosher salt and pepper. Spread the garlic paste, parsley, and rosemary all over the interior.
3. Roll the leg of lamb into a cylinder and tie it tightly every 1-2 inches to secure it. Tie across the length of the leg to keep it all together.
4. Cut small slits into the lambs exterior and insert the garlic chunks. Coat the lamb with olive oil and season the exterior with the remaining salt and pepper.
5. Place the lamb in a roasting pan elevated with a wire rack. Pour 1 -1.5 cups of water into the pan making sure the water doesn’t rise to the bottom of the lamb.
6. Roast the lamb at 450f for 15 minutes, then turn the heat down to 350f. Cook the lamb until the center of the lamb is 135f. Check with an instant-read thermometer during cooking to get the temp just right. The lamb should take about 20 minutes per pound to cook.
7. When the lamb is finished let sit lightly tented with foil for 15 minutes. Remove the twine and cut it into slices. Serve with the optional mint salsa verde and garnish with mint leaves. Enjoy!
