In a community cookbook, May, 1986. Sounds great but I bet you could use less oil. This is a 48 hour marination. Meat could be grilled or broiled.
Ingredients:
1 (5 -6 lb) leg of lamb, butterflied, fat removed
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
1 cup onion, chopped
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
2 bay leaves, crushed
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
4 teaspoons dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
1. Combine all marinade ingredients in a shallow dish and place lamb in the dish to marinade, coating all parts, covered. You can also use a large ziplock style plastic bag which works better.
2. Allow meat to marinate 48 hours in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.
3. Grill or broil meat 12-15 minutes per side. It will continue to cook for a few minutes after it is removed from the heat or grill.
4. Meat should be pink on the inside. Do not overcook.
