Awesome Herb Roast Leg of Lamb Recipe

  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 pounds leg of lamb
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  2. Mix garlic, salt, pepper, ginger, thyme, sage, add marjoram in a bowl. Stir soy sauce and vegetable oil into the garlic mixture until loosely paste-like; add the bay leaf.
  3. Cut slits into the lamb on all sides. Rub herb mixture over entire surface of lamb, massaging it into the slits. Put lamb in a roasting pan.
  4. Roast lamb until browned on the outside and red in the center, about 50 minutes for rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C). Cover lamb loosely with aluminum foil and cool about 20 minutes before carving.
