How to Make Rosemary Honey Roast Leg Of Lamb
- In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
- Rub the honey-spice mixture all over the lamb leg.
- Cover the lamb and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to fully develop.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Place the lamb on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Sprinkle generously with salt to taste.
- Roast at 450°F (232°C) for 20 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 400°F (204°C).
- Continue roasting for 55-60 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare.
- Let the lamb rest for at least 15 minutes before carving and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
