Recipe - Roasted Lemonrosemary Leg Of Lamb

8 pound Leg of lamb (approx)
2 Garlic cloves, slivered
3 tablespoon Lemon juice (or less)
1 teaspoon Rosemary, crumbled
1 One half teaspoon Salt
One fourth teaspoon Pepper
One fourth cup Butter (or margarine)

Remove the lamb from the refrigerator 1 hour before roasting. Preheat the
oven to 350 degrees F.

Trim all but a thin layer of far from the lamb, and make small slits over
the surface of the meat. Insert the slivered garlic into these slits. Brush
the lamb with lemon juice, and rub rosemary, salt and pepper into the meat.

Place the lamb, fat side up, on a roasting rack in a large, shallow
roasting pan. Roast at 350 degrees F. for 1 One half hours, or until a
properlyplaced meat thermometer reads 140 degrees F. for rare, 150 for
medium, or 160 for well done. Carve and serve.
