Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).

2
Prepare the herb mixture

Remove the leaves from the rosemary and thyme stems. Finely chop the herbs and mince the garlic cloves. In a small bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a paste.

3
Prepare the leg of lamb

Place the leg of lamb in a roasting pan. Using a sharp knife, make several shallow cuts all over the surface of the lamb.

4
Rub the herb mixture

Rub the herb mixture all over the leg of lamb, making sure to push it into the cuts for maximum flavor penetration.

5
Roast the lamb

Place the roasting pan with the lamb in the preheated oven. Roast for 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, or your desired level of doneness.

6
Let the lamb rest

Remove the leg of lamb from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

7
Carve and serve

Carve the Herbed Leg of Lamb into slices and arrange them on a serving platter. Serve hot, accompanied by your favorite side dishes.
