Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
• 3 teaspoons dried dill weed
• 1 (5 pound) leg of lamb
• 3 cloves garlic, cut into slivers
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1.5 teaspoons salt

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step 2

Puncture leg of lamb with the tip of a knife just far enough to insert slivers of garlic into the holes. Mix dill, salt, rosemary, and black pepper together in a bowl: rub over lamb.

Step 3

Place lamb, fatty side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.

Step 4

Roast in the preheated oven for 2 to 2 ½ hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Tent with aluminum foil, and let stand 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
