    List of Ingredients




    Lamb - Roasted Leg of Lamb + Vegetables

    1 Leg of Lamb, 7-8 pounds
    2 Cloves of Garlic, cut into slices lengthwise
    6 tbsp. Olive Oil
    1/2 bunch Fresh Thyme, removed from stems
    1 bunch Fresh Rosemary, 1/2 removed from stems and chopped
    2 tbsp. Course ground Black Pepper
    1 tbsp. Kosher Salt
    Splash of hearty red wine
    1/3 cup Lamb or Beef stock
    32 New Potatoes, small
    2 bunches Baby Carrots, cleaned and de-stemmed
    2 White Onions, quartered

    Evenly over the lamb, cut slits and insert the garlic slices and brush
    with 3 tablespoons of olive oil. In a small bowl, combine the thyme,
    chopped rosemary, black pepper and salt. Pat this herb mixture all over
    the lamb leg to create a light crust. Place in a shallow roasting pan.
    In a large bowl, place the potatoes, onions and carrots, toss with the
    remaining olive oil and the whole stems of rosemary, and arrange around
    the lamb in the pan. Roast in a preheated 425-degree oven for 45
    minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees, stir the vegetables, and
    continue cooking for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the lamb
    on a cutting board and let the meat rest for 15 minutes. The internal
    temperature should reach about 140 degrees. Remove the vegetables to a
    platter with a slotted spoon. Place the roasting pan on a stove burner
    at medium high heat and deglaze the pan with the wine and the meat
    stock. Reduce the volume by half. Serve the lamb making sure to spoon
    the drippings onto the meat to capture all the flavor and arrange the
    roasted vegetables along one side.
    8 servings

    Note: For rare lamb, bone in, allow 12 minutes per pound. For well-done
    meat, allow 18 minutes per pound.
