Perfect for a warm, sunny Easter celebration - Grilled Herb Lamb

With Easter Sunday just around the corner, and with the weather people forecasting a fair day this year, a Grilled Herb Lamb might be the perfect dinner for a celebration.

Ingredients

• 1 boneless short cut lamb leg, butterflied
• 1 bunch Italian parsley, chopped
• 1 bunch rosemary, chopped
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
• 2 ounces olive oil

Preparation

Preheat grill to 350°F.

Combine parsley, rosemary, garlic, salt, pepper, and oil in a small work bowl and mix thoroughly. Rub herb mixture over lamb leg until evenly coated, then place onto grill.

Grill lamb leg over medium indirect heat covered for approximately 1 hour, or until a probe thermometer placed into the thickest section reads 135°F.

Let meat rest loosely covered with aluminum foil for 12-15 minutes before carving and serving.

Serve with grilled seasonal vegetables. A Zinfandel pairs well with this.
