Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Step 2
Cut 20 deep slits evenly spaced around the leg of lamb without cutting the netting. Stuff one garlic clove into each slit. Rub garlic powder over lamb. Slice rosemary sprigs; place under the netting evenly around lamb. Transfer lamb to a roasting pan.
Step 3
Roast lamb in the preheated oven until pink and juicy in the center for medium, about 2 to 2 ½ hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil; lest rest until thermometer reads 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) before carving, about 20 minutes.
