If you're used to cooking steak and chicken, it's time to mix things up in the kitchen and make lamb chops. The best advice we can give is to let the lamb sit out at room temperature before you cook it. Also, remember that the lamb will continue to cook after you take it out of the oven, so don't overcook the meat.
Preheat oven to 310 F. Rub down leg of lamb with salt and pepper all over. Add any other seasonings or spices that you want. Sear on each side of the lamb in a hot cast iron pan or on a hot grill. Arrange a bed of herbs, shallots, freshly chopped garlic, and sliced lemons in a roasting pan and place the leg on top.
Roast the lamb in the oven for 15 minutes per pound. Remove from the pan and loosely cover it with foil. Rest the meat for 20 minutes. Transfer to a platter with more fresh herbs and serve at the table. It's that simple, and you can impress your family and friends with this recipe.
