Rosemary Garlic Lamb Leg Sirloin Recipes

LAMB SIRLOIN ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a roasting pan or a deep cast iron with aluminum foil.
• Crush the garlic into a paste with a mortar and pestle. If you don't have one, you can use a coffee mug and a cutting board or a Ziplock bag and a blunt object.
• Pat the lamb dry with paper towels.
• In a bowl, combine the garlic, olive oil, rosemary, Lemon Juice, salt and pepper.
• Place the lamb leg on top of the roasting pan and massage the leg with the rosemary mixture. Pour the wine over the leg and roast in the oven for 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes, until the leg reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F. Let the leg rest for 15 minutes before slicing. It keeps cooking when it rests!

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chops from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Grill chops until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 135 degrees F (57 degrees C), 5 to 7 minutes per side.

Season the meat with the salt and pepper and place the lamb in a roasting pan. Place the lamb in the oven and roast for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue to cook for about 1 hour longer for medium-rare, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers about 145 degrees F to 150 degrees F (be careful that the thermometer does not touch the bone.) Remove lamb from pan and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
• Position the roasting pan over your stove burners. Add mixed herbs and onions to pan, and stir to combine with pan drippings. Add chicken stock and wine to deglaze the pan, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to release any fond. Reduce over high heat until sauce consistency. Strain before serving, if desired. Slice lamb and serve with sauce drizzled over the top.

LAMB SHASHLIKS WITH ROSEMARY & GARLIC

Steps:

• Mix the lamb with the lemon and juice, oil, garlic and rosemary. Season well. Cover with cling film and leave to chill for a few hours or, if possible, overnight.
• Thread the lamb onto large metal or wooden skewers, alternating with the peppers and onions. (If using wooden skewers, soak for 20 mins before using.)
• Get your coals hot, then put the lamb skewers over the heat and cook for about 5 mins until well coloured. Turn over and cook for a further 5-10 mins until cooked to your liking and nicely charred. To test if the lamb is done, put a large skewer into the middle of the meat and press down on the flesh. If the juice that runs from it is bloody, it's not cooked enough. If the juice is pink and watery, the lamb is cooked the way I like it. If the liquid is completely clear, the lamb is well done. Allow the meat to rest for a few mins before serving with flatbreads, yogurt, chilli sauce, and tomato and cucumber.

ROAST LEG OF LAMB WITH LEMON, GARLIC, AND ROSEMARY

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Remove the meat from the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes before cooking. Place the lamb on a rack in a foil-lined roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. Place the meat in the oven and after 5 minutes, reduce the temperature to 425 degrees. Roast for 45 minutes, or until medium rare, 140 degrees on an instant read thermometer. Allow the meat to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving and serving.
