Greek Style Roast Leg of Lamb (Perfect for your Easter Table!!)
Printable Recipe:
Ingredients
1 leg of lamb, bone-in, about 7-8 pounds
10 or more garlic cloves, cut into slivers
2 onions, quartered
salt (about a half teaspoon per pound)
freshly ground black pepper
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
1 cup of water
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons dried crushed oregano,
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °F.
Use a sharp knife to cut slits into the leg of lamb. Stick the garlic slivers into the slits.
Place the lamb in a large roasting pan.
Combine the lemon juice and olive oil together and pour it all over the lamb. Season the lamb on both sides with salt, pepper, and oregano.
Add the rosemarry sprigs and the onions to the pan. Pour the water into the pan.
Cover the lamb with a sheet of parchment paper and then tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake for 3-4 hours or until the meat is soft and almost falling off the bone.
Remove the foil and parchment and place the pan back into the oven and onto the middle rack. Turn the broiler element on and broil for 5-10 minutes or until the top is golden. Keep a close eye on it so that the lamb does not burn.
Serve with roasted lemony potatoes, tzatztki, and Mediterranean Rice pilaf. Enjoy and Kali Orexi!
Notes
Marinate the meat and insert the garlic cloves the day before serving. Keep it refrigerated and allow the meat to come to room temperature before roasting.

Italian Roast Leg of Lamb | Jamie Oliver
Jamie’s back with a twist on a roast leg of lamb recipe using anchovies as a secret and surprisingly tasty ingredient. Along with the more traditional rosemary and garlic, anchovies give the meat a unique flavour – and trust us on this – you will totally love it. An Italian inspired mint sauce with capers, mustard and parsley, an easy onion gravy sweetened with redcurrant jelly and the most tender meat you’ve ever tasted. This dish is mouthwateringly good. Serve with potato and swede mash for a hearty and super satisfying meal – what are you waiting for? Tuck in!.

Garlic and Herb Roast Leg of Lamb, Slow Cooked
Garlic and Herb Roast Leg of Lamb, Slow Cooked to perfection.
This recipe will give you a perfect roast leg of lamb every time. If you can, buy a Spring leg of lamb, usually under five months old, probably the ultimate Sunday roast. It’s actually quite easy to make, just follow a few simple steps and your lamb will be to die for.
This one has the bone still attached, hence making it tastier and extra moist which is my preference. It’s cooked at a lower temperature for a longer time resulting in more even cooking throughout plus juicier. Use woody rosemary if you can, it will be easier to insert.
If you don’t have a roasting rack, cut a peeled onion in two and place your lamb leg on the onion so it sits higher than the liquid.
Lamb is a wine friendly meat, so have it with a nice bottle of medium to full bodied red, like a Bordeaux or Cabernet Sauvignon.
