Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Lamb Recipes

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 whole bone-in leg of lamb (7 to 8 pounds), trimmed of excess fat and membrane
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 large garlic cloves, cut into 20 slivers
1/2 cup white-wine vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves, chopped
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in lower third. Rub lamb with a generous amount of salt and pepper, then rub with oil. With the tip of a sharp paring knife, cut twenty 1/2-inch-deep slits all over lamb; insert garlic slivers into openings.
  • Place lamb on a roasting rack set on a rimmed baking sheet; place in oven. Immediately reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Roast lamb until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part (avoiding bone) registers 125 degrees to 135 degrees for rare, or 135 degrees to 140 degrees for medium, 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 hours. Remove from oven; let rest 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
  • Meanwhile, make the mint sauce: In a small saucepan, bring vinegar, sugar, and water to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until liquid is syrupy and reduced to 1 cup, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in mint, and let cool completely.

Grilled Leg of Lamb with Mint-Garlic Rub image

In this elegant lamb recipe perfect for entertaining, boneless leg of lamb gets a mint and garlic rub. The butterflied lamb cooks in record time and the varying thickness means some slices will be more done than others, so there's something for everyone. The recipe calls for a cut that's large enough to serve about 16 people and still have enough leftovers to make an awesome sandwich or pasta.

Categories     Healthy Leg of Lamb Recipes

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup fresh mint leaves, loosely packed
½ cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, loosely packed
3 cloves garlic
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 5-pound boneless leg of lamb, butterflied and trimmed (see Tip)

Steps:

  • Finely chop mint, parsley and garlic and combine in a small bowl. Stir in oil, salt and pepper.
  • Pat lamb dry. If you have metal skewers, thread 2 through the lamb horizontally to help the meat hold together and make it easier to flip on the grill. (If you don't have skewers, just be sure you have long sturdy tongs.) Rub the herb mixture evenly over the lamb. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or up to 1 day to allow the flavors to penetrate.
  • About 1 hour before you're ready to grill, remove the lamb from the refrigerator.
  • Preheat a gas grill to medium or prepare a medium-hot charcoal grill and push the coals to one side.
  • Grill the lamb over direct heat until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into the thickest part registers 125 degrees to 130 degrees F for medium-rare, 10 to 15 minutes per side. If the meat is getting too charred, occasionally move it to the cooler part of the grill. (Alternatively, place the lamb in a roasting pan and roast in the oven at 425 degrees F until it reaches the desired temperature, 25 to 35 minutes.)
  • Place the lamb on a clean cutting board, tent with foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

BUTTERFLIED LEG OF LAMB MARINATED IN YOGURT AND MINT



Butterflied Leg of Lamb Marinated in Yogurt and Mint image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 6h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup plain yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 scallions, finely chopped
3 large garlic cloves, minced, plus 1 large clove garlic
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
Salt to taste
1 (4 to 5 pound) butterflied leg of lamb
Vegetable oil cooking spray
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large clove garlic, crushed

Steps:

  • Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, scallions, minced garlic, mint, thyme, lemon zest, pepper, and salt in a large bowl and stir to mix. Rub the garlic clove over both sides of the lamb and put the lamb in a shallow glass or ceramic dish. Pour the marinade over the meat and turn it several times to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. About 30 minutes before grilling, remove the meat from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature.
  • Prepare a charcoal or gas grill arranging the coals for indirect cooking. Lightly spray the grill rack with vegetable oil cooking spray. The coals should be hot. Lift the lamb from the marinade, scrape off the excess marinade, and season both sides with salt and pepper. Discard the marinade. Combine the oil and crushed garlic in a small bowl for brushing on the meat.
  • Sear the lamb over the hot coals for about 5 minutes on each side, brushing with the olive oil and garlic mixture several times; continue brushing the lamb with the remaining olive oil and garlic mixture during the first 20 minutes of grilling. Move the lamb to the cooler part of the grill, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes. Turn the meat over, cover, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes longer for medium-rare meat, or until cooked to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat should register 140 degrees for rare meat and 145 to 150 degrees for medium-rare. Let the lamb rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Categories     main-dish

Time 9h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 de-boned (5 pound) leg of lamb, trimmed of excess fat
5 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups Greek-style yogurt
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
2 teaspoons ground cumin

BARBECUED LAMB WITH SWEET MINT DRESSING



Barbecued lamb with sweet mint dressing image

Enjoy a beautiful BBQ for two with this sumptuous centrepiece

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tbsp soft light brown sugar
juice and zest 1 lemon
125ml olive oil
8 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves , crushed
4 tbsp chopped mint
half boneless leg of lamb , about 400g/14oz

Steps:

  • Make the marinade: mix the sugar, lemon juice and zest with the olive oil, balsamic and some seasoning. Stir to dissolve the sugar then mix in the garlic and mint. Reserve half of the marinade to use as a dressing for the lamb later.
  • Open out the meat and lay it in a deep tray. Pour the marinade on top then turn to coat all over in the mix. Cover with cling film and leave for 1 hr or overnight in the fridge.
  • Remove the lamb from the fridge and shake off any excess marinade back into the tray. Insert a skewer so that it goes from one corner to the opposite one. Do the same with another skewer in the opposite direction - this makes it really easy to turn the meat on the barbecue.
  • Heat a barbecue or griddle pan until it's a medium heat. Cook the lamb for 15-20 mins, turning frequently for pink lamb or longer if you prefer it more done. When cooked, rest for 5-10 mins before taking out the skewers, slicing and serving with the reserved marinade for pouring over.

  • Cook mint leaves in a pot of boiling water for about 10 seconds.
  • Transfer mint leaves to a bowl of ice water; soak for 30 seconds, drain and squeeze dry.

HONEY GLAZED ROAST LAMB WITH HONEY MINT SAUCE



Honey Glazed Roast Lamb With Honey Mint Sauce image

When you invite friends over for Sunday lunch it's a time to relax, not be stuck in the kitchen among the pots and pans. This Roast Lamb is an excellent choice, especially when partnered with rosemary and honey and a sauce using fresh mint. The honey glaze turns the joint a lovely golden colour, and the honey-sweetened mint sauce is a flavoursome change from the sharp vinegary taste of traditional recipes. Serve with a hot gratin of Dauphinoise Potatoes and some braised leeks for a really special meal.

MOROCCAN LEG OF LAMB WITH MINT DRESSING



Moroccan Leg of Lamb With Mint Dressing image

When a large crowd is coming over, it's easy for panic to set in, as the Lee brothers discussed in the 2006 article accompanying this recipe. Their solution? Cooking a big cut of meat. For their first attempt, they looked to lamb, specifically this Moroccan lamb, coated with harissa, lemon zest and juice (which they used as a substitute for preserved lemons), and cured before roasting. The end result, served with a mint dressing, and perhaps a side of couscous or even mashed potatoes, is a satisfying show-stopper.

Provided by Matt Lee And Ted Lee

Categories     dinner, roasts, main course

Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 9-to-11-pound bone-in leg of lamb, trimmed of fat and membrane
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup fruity-tasting olive oil
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon harissa (Moroccan chili paste), more for serving
1 teaspoon whole coriander seeds, toasted and crushed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Mint dressing

Steps:

  • Score meaty side of lamb in a diamond pattern of 1/4-inch-deep cuts about 1 1/2 inches apart. Season with salt and pepper, and place scored-side up in a large roasting pan.
  • In a small bowl, whisk olive oil with lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, harissa, coriander seeds and cumin. Pour marinade over lamb and massage into crevices. Cover pan with aluminum foil and refrigerate 2 1/2 hours or overnight. Remove from refrigerator 1 1/2 hours before cooking to return lamb to room temperature; in last 15 minutes, heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Remove foil from pan and place pan on middle oven rack; turn heat down to 350 degrees. Roast, basting lamb with pan juices every 1/2 hour, until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of meat reads 130 degrees, about 1 3/4 hours total. Remove from oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 15 minutes before carving. Serve with harissa and mint dressing.
