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.

Steps:
- Use a paring knife to make a dozen small slits in the meat. Tuck garlic slivers into slits. Place meat in a baking dish.
- In a small bowl, stir together oil, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pour marinade over lamb, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate, basting occasionally with the marinade, for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees with rack positioned to fit the lamb in a roasting pan. Remove lamb from refrigerator, uncover, and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat a roasting pan with oil.
- Transfer lamb to a rack fitted in the prepared pan, reserving leftover marinade. Season meat with salt and pepper. Roast lamb, basting every 20 to 30 minutes, first with the reserved marinade, and then with juices that accumulate in the pan. The lamb will need to cook for about 20 minutes per pound (2 hours for a 6-pound leg of lamb; 2 hours and 40 minutes for 8 pounds). An instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat, not touching the bone, should read 145 degrees when the lamb is medium-rare.
- Remove pan from oven and transfer lamb to a cutting board. Cover to keep warm; let rest for 20 minutes before carving. Pour pan juices into a fat separator or glass measuring cup; spoon off any fat that rises to the surface and discard. Cover juices to keep warm while lamb rests; add any juices that collect as the lamb sits.
- Carve lamb, and arrange slices on a large warm platter; drizzle with reserved pan juices just before serving.
HERB AND GARLIC ROASTED LEG OF LAMB
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 325 F. Place a rack in a roasting pan and set aside.
- Pat the lamb dry with paper towels. Remove any excess fat with a sharp knife, leaving some on so you'll have rich drippings for gravy.
- Peel the garlic. Cut 2 cloves of garlic into thin slivers. Mince the third clove of garlic and set aside.
- With a small, sharp knife, make several tiny, slits-about 1/2-inch to 1-inch deep-evenly over the surface of the lamb. Insert the garlic slivers into the slits.
- Rub the lamb all over with the lemon juice.
- In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic with the herbs, 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper. Rub the garlic and herb mixture over the surface of the lamb.
- Place the lamb, fat side up, on the rack of the prepared pan.
- Insert meat thermometer in the thickest part of the meat, not touching fat or bone.
- Roast for about 25 to 30 minutes per pound, or until the meat thermometer registers 145 F (medium rare) to 165 F (well done).
- Remove the roast to a platter and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving.
- Gather the ingredients.
- Remove the rack from the roasting pan. Skim excess fat from the drippings and place the pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the red wine and cook for about 2 minutes while scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the chicken stock with the flour; whisk until smooth.
- Add the remaining 1 cup of chicken stock and the flour-stock mixture to the roasting pan, whisking frequently until thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
