Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp thyme
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 2 minced garlic cloves
  • 4 lbs butter-flied leg of lamb

Directions:

  1. Combine paprika, mustard, white, black and cayenne peppers, salt, fennel, thyme and oregano. Place on large plate or baking sheet.
  2. Melt butter with garlic and pour onto a separate plate or pan.
  3. Dip lamb into garlic butter then into seasonings, pressing firmly onto each side.
  4. Place lamb on greased grill on medium high setting; Cook for 15-20 minutes on each side, depending on thickness, or until desired doneness - 65° C (140° F) for rare, 70° C (150° F) for medium. Meat will blacken . Let rest and slice on the diagonal.
  5. Alternatively, in a large heavy skillet or roasting pan, brown lamb on both sides-expect a lot of smoke-and roast in a 350°oven for 35-40 minutes.
