Tapenade-Stuffed Leg Of Lamb
- 3 to 4 pounds boneless leg of lamb
- 1/4 cup tapenade
- 3 garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
- Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- to 350u0b0F. Oil a roasting pan just large enough to hold the lamb. Place a rack in the pan.
- Unroll the lamb and spread the boned-out side with the tapenade. Roll up the lamb tightly. Tie it at 2-inch intervals with kitchen twine. With a small, sharp knife, cut slits 2 or 3 inches apart in the top of the roast. Push the garlic slices into the slits. Sprinkle the roast all over with the rosemary, salt, and pepper.
- for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. To check for doneness, insert an instant-read thermometer in the thickest part of the meat. For medium-rare, the temperature should be 140 to 150u0b0F. Cover loosely with foil and let the meat rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
- Cut into thin slices.
