Time 3h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 leg of lamb, 5 pounds
3 garlic cloves, cut into slivers
3 teaspoons dried dill weed
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. Do not remove fell (paperlike covering) from lamb. Make 10 or 12 small slits in lamb with tip of knife. Insert slivers of garlic into slits. Mix remaining ingredients; rub over lamb.
  • Place lamb, fat side up, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in center of thickest part of lamb and does not touch bone or rest in fat. Do not add water.
  • Roast uncovered to desired doneness: For medium-rare, 1 hour 40 minutes to 2 hours 5 minutes or until thermometer reads 140°F; for medium, 2 hours 5 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes or until thermometer reads 155°F.
  • Cover lamb with tent of aluminum foil and let stand 15 to 20 minutes. Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F (to 145°F for medium-rare; to 160° for medium) and lamb will be easier to carve as juices set up. Remove foil.

This leg of lamb was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I would cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.
