LEG OF LAMB WITH GARLIC, MINT, DIJON
This is a take-off on Alton Brown's barbequed leg of lamb. I upped his spice paste quantity and let it sit overnight before roasting it, whereas he says the spice paste need only be on the meat as long as it takes charcoal to get ready. Either way, delicious!

Steps:
- In a mini food processor, pulverize all of the ingredients, except the lamb, into a smooth, somewhat runny paste.
- If your lamb leg isn't boned, remove all but the shank bone (lowest). There are some decent boning instructions and diagrams on the internet if you, like me, are new to this procedure.
- Lay open the upper, meaty, sirloin portion of the lamb leg and rub the spice paste mixture into any and all crevices and flaps.
- Using kitchen twine, shape the uppper portion into a compact roast--in my case I tied it about 5 times across the leg and 3 times lengthwise. I anchored the lengthwise threads by pushing them through a hole in the muscle attached to the shank (this is a testimony as to how much I hacked it up trying to get the bones out!).
- Once it is all tied, roast-like, smear the spice paste all over the outside of the meat.
- Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Remove lamb from refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature while you preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Position two racks in the upper third of the oven. When oven has come to temperature, oil the top rack, slide a rimmed baking sheet onto the bottom rack and drop the lamb onto the oiled rack. I guess you could use a roasting pan with a rack in it, but I don't have one.
- Check after about 20 minutes, if outside is browning too quickly, lay a piece of aluminum foil over it or flip it over or both.
- Roast until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees.
- Let rest 15 minutes before carving.
- My 4 to 5 pound lamb leg took about an hour and a half to reach the proper internal temperature.

Steps:
- Marinate the lamb: Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl; whisk until smooth. Place the lamb on a rimmed baking sheet or in a roasting pan; poke about 10 slits into each side with the tip of a paring knife. Rub the marinade all over the lamb, massaging it into the meat and slits. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Remove the lamb from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature about 1 hour before roasting. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and set a rack in a roasting pan. Wipe any excess marinade off the lamb and season all over with salt and pepper; transfer to the rack. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 130 degrees F to 135 degrees F, about 1 hour 50 minutes. Remove from the oven, transfer to a cutting board and let rest 30 to 45 minutes before carving.
- Meanwhile, make the mint sauce: Combine the mint, parsley, garlic, mustard, capers, lemon juice, sugar, red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender and puree until smooth. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl. Carve the lamb and serve with the sauce.

MINT CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB
I love how the sweet, herbaceous crust works with the subtly gamey meat. Lamb is obviously a popular Easter menu option and this mint-crusted rack of lamb is perfect for the occasion.

- Pat lamb dry. If you have metal skewers, thread 2 through the lamb horizontally to help the meat hold together and make it easier to flip on the grill. (If you don't have skewers, just be sure you have long sturdy tongs.) Rub the herb mixture evenly over the lamb. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or up to 1 day to allow the flavors to penetrate.
- Preheat a gas grill to medium or prepare a medium-hot charcoal grill and push the coals to one side.
