    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    Serving size: 3 ounces lamb, 1 orange quarter, and 1 1/2 tablespoons sauce

    1 (5-pound) boned leg of lamb
    5 garlic cloves, halved
    1 cup orange juice
    1/2 cup cream sherry or orange juice
    1 teaspoon chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    6 garlic cloves, minced
    1 bay leaf
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 navel oranges, quartered
    1 teaspoon cornstarch
    1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

    Unroll roast, and trim fat. Reroll roast; secure at 2-inch intervals with heavy string. Make 10 (1/2-inch-deep) slits in surface of roast; stuff garlic halves into slits.

    Combine juice and the next 6 ingredients (juice through bay leaf) in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add the lamb; seal and marinate in refrigerator 8 to 24 hours.

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

    Remove lamb from bag, reserving marinade, and discard bay leaf. Place the roast on a broiler pan, and insert a meat thermometer into thickest portion of roast. Sprinkle the roast with 1/2 teaspoon salt.

    Bake the roast at 450 degrees for 20 minutes, basting once with 1/4 cup reserved marinade.

    Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees (do not remove the lamb from oven); add quartered oranges, and bake 1 hour or until thermometer registers 145 degrees (medium-rare) to 160 degrees (medium). Let the roast stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

    Combine the pan drippings, the remaining marinade, and cornstarch in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, and cook 1 minute. Stir in parsley. Serve sauce with lamb.
