- For marinade, mix together extra virgin olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, rosemary, basil, salt and pepper (if you like), thyme, savory or possibly sage (if you like). Blend well and save the lemon halves for the roasting pan.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Trim off all fat, this makes a big difference in flavor- lamb fat is not delicious. Cut 3-6 cloves garlic into slivers.
- Make several deep incisions in meat, on top and bottom of roast, with knife and insert garlic slivers. Place lamb leg on rack into roasting pan. Put squeezed lemon halves from marinade into bottom of pan. Brush lamb with marinade before roasting, place in oven and immediately reduce heat to 350 degrees. Baste meat with marinade every 20 min while roasting, till meat reaches desired doneness (roast at 10 min per lb. for rare; 15 min per lb. for medium; and 20 min per lb. for well done. Let roast rest 10 min in pan after removing it from the oven before carving.
- Serves 1 person per lb.. Garnish with mint sprigs or possibly parsley.
