This delicious recipe combines the natural succulence of leg of lamb with a marinade that highlights its inherent qualities.

The lamb becomes a canvas for the flavors of the marinade of honey, garlic, rosemary leaves, virgin olive oil and the citrus touch of lemon juice.

This blend infuses the meat with a symphony of aromas that signal the culinary experience to come.

As the lamb browns and the sauce caramelizes, the flavors intensify, creating a crispy, golden surface that seals the tender juiciness within.

Ingredients for Roasted Lamb with Honey

1 leg of lamb (about 5.5 lbs), 4 tablespoons honey and 4 cloves garlic, minced

2 sprigs of fresh rosemary and 2 sprigs of fresh thyme.

¼ cup olive oil, salt and pepper to taste.

1 cup lamb broth or vegetable broth (for the sauce, optional)

Prepare the lamb

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Place the leg of lamb on a baking sheet and make small slits in the surface with a sharp knife.

In a bowl, whisk together the honey, minced garlic, fresh rosemary and thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper.

Generously spread the honey mixture over the leg of lamb, making sure the seasonings penetrate the cuts.

Cooking the lamb

Place the tray in the preheated oven.

Roast the leg of lamb for about 1 hour and 30 minutes.

The meat should browned on the outside and tender on the inside.

Just occasionally baste the cooking juices to the leg to keep it moist.

Carving and serving

Remove the leg of lamb from the oven and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes before carving, keeping the meat juicy.

Optional: If you want an additional sauce, you can use the cooking juices in the tray.

Transfer the juices to a saucepan, add the lamb stock or vegetable stock and cook over medium heat until the sauce reduces and thickens.

Carve the leg of lamb and serve on a plate garnishded with sprigs of fresh rosemary and thyme.
