PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
ROASTED LEG OF LAMB
Season with rosemary, garlic, and olive oil. Roast at 350°F (175°C) for 15–20 minutes per pound to medium-rare; rest before carving.
GREEK-STYLE SLOW ROAST
Marinate in lemon, olive oil, oregano, and garlic. Roast low and slow until tender, basting with pan juices.
HERB-CRUSTED LAMB
Coat with crushed herbs, nuts, and parmesan. Roast at 400°F (205°C) for a flavorful crust and juicy interior.
SLICED FOR MEAL PREP
Roast, slice, and refrigerate portions for the week—great over salads, in lettuce wraps, or reheated with veggies.
LAMB STEAK CUTS
Slice the leg into steaks; season simply and pan-sear 2–4 minutes per side depending on thickness.
SLOW-COOKED LAMB
Cube and slow cook in broth with low-carb vegetables for ultra-tender results and rich gravy.
