Steps to make Roasted Garlic Mint Lamb Leg:
- Take the leg of lamb out of the refrigerator and leave in room temperature for about 1 hour..
- In the meantime, prepare the remaining ingredients and make the lamb rub..
- To make the rub, in a food processor, combine the rub ingredients. Blend until smooth. Set aside (or in the fridge, if preparing in advance)..
- When ready, pat the lamb dry and make a few slits on both sides. Season with salt and pepper..
- Turn the oven on broil. Place the leg of lamb on a wire rack; place the rack directly on the top oven rack so that it's only a few inches away from the broiler element. Broil for 5-7 minutes on each side or until the leg of lamb is nicely seared. Remove from the oven, then adjust the oven temperature to 325 degrees F..
- When the lamb is cool enough to handle, insert the garlic slices in the slits you made earlier.
