Recipe Details:

  • Preparation Time: 5 minutes
  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Category: Lamb/Sheep
  • Keywords: Meat, Very Low Carbs, Low Protein, Low Cholesterol, < 15 Mins

Ingredients:

  • 1 leg of lamb
  • Olive oil
  • 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Pepper
  • Ginger
  • White grape jelly

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 325Β°F (163Β°C). This ensures the perfect cooking environment for your lamb.

  2. Prepare Roasting Pan: In a large roasting pan, generously coat the bottom with olive oil. This prevents the lamb from sticking and adds a layer of flavor to the dish.

  3. Add Aromatics: In the center of the roasting pan, place 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary, 2 crushed garlic cloves, and 2 small slices of ginger. These aromatic ingredients infuse the lamb with delightful flavors as it roasts.

  4. Prepare the Lamb: Carefully place the leg of lamb on top of the herbs in the roasting pan. Ensure that the lamb is positioned evenly for consistent cooking.

  5. Season and Glaze: Sprinkle pepper generously over the leg of lamb. Then, cover the lamb thoroughly with white grape jelly, ensuring every inch is coated for a sweet and savory flavor profile.

  6. Roast the Lamb: Transfer the roasting pan into the preheated oven and roast the lamb for approximately 30 minutes per pound. Keep an eye on the lamb, and roast until it reaches your desired level of doneness. You’ll know it’s ready when it easily comes away from the bone and develops a beautiful dark crust.

  7. Rest and Slice: Once cooked to perfection, remove the leg of lamb from the oven and set it aside to cool slightly before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat, ensuring each slice is moist and flavorful.

  8. Prepare Gravy: While the lamb rests, take advantage of the wonderful aromatic drippings left in the bottom of the roasting pan. Remove any excess fat and herb remnants, then boil your kettle. Add just enough water to the drippings to create a rich, dark gravy that perfectly complements the lamb.

  9. Serve and Enjoy: Garnish the sliced leg of lamb with the flavorful gravy, and serve alongside your favorite accompaniments. We suggest pairing it with roasted squash or green beans with sliced almonds and mushrooms for a complete meal. For a variation, consider adding halved potatoes to the roasting pan during the last 30 minutes of cooking for an equally delicious alternative.

  10. Savor the Moment: Sit back, relax, and savor every bite of this delightful dish. With its tender texture, aromatic flavors, and irresistible sweetness, our Awesome Roasted Leg of Lamb is sure to become a family favorite.
