Source: RecipeGirl.com

• 1 boneless leg of lamb, 4 to 5 lbs.
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 8 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 Tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 Tbsp. kosher salt
• 2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

2. Using your hands, rub lamb all over with lemon juice. Pat the garlic and rosemary evenly all over the surface of the meat. Season the meat with salt and pepper and place the lamb in a roasting pan.

3. Place the lamb in the oven and roast for 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. and continue to roast (general rule is 30 minutes per pound) 2 to 2 1/2 hours, or until meat thermometer inserted into center of the roast registers 145 to 150 degrees F.

4. Remove lamb from the oven and allow to rest for about 15 minutes before carving (the temperature will continue to rise about 5-6 more degrees).

Serves: 6 to 8, depending on the size of your roast
